Postdoc in Entangled Plasmon Spectroscopy Theory

DTU - Technical University of Denmark; Kongens Lyngby; On-site; DKK 420,000 - 520,000; Full time

Job summary

DTU Physics invites applications for a 2-year Post-Doctoral Researcher position to develop a theory of spectroscopy with entangled surface plasmons. You will contribute to nonlinear spectroscopies and design quantum states of plasmons to control excitation pathways.

The ideal candidate holds a PhD in Physics, Chemistry or Materials Science, has experience in light-matter interaction theory, is proficient in Python or Fortran, and communicates in English at a high level.

Qualifications

• PhD in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or related field.
• Experience in light-matter interaction theory (quantum/nonlinear optics, spectroscopy, plasmonics).
• Proficiency in Python or Fortran and scientific software.
• Strong English communication and ability to present ideas.

Responsibilities

• Develop analytical theory for nonlinear absorption of entangled surface plasmons by molecules on surfaces.
• Design families of entangled plasmon states to selectively enhance or suppress interaction pathways.
• Connect signals to quantum chemistry pictures of charge transfer and intermolecular forces.
