Background
Photonic devices and cavities have been widely used for decades for quantum technology applications, such as atomic clocks, atomic interferometry, frequency combs, gravitometers etc. This post involves the design of new nanophotonic devices that optically traps atoms and optimizes their light-matter interactions, to build the next generation of a quantum navigator.
Role Summary
We seek an individual with theoretical photonics background primarily in the research area of nanophotonics, and/or quantum optics. The successful candidate will perform computational calculations to design various nanophotonic devices. This project involves a very high degree of teamwork and interdisciplinary research, with collaboration with experimental and nanofabrication groups.
