Job summary

Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) invites applications for a PhD project exploring pump-probe optical and terahertz spectroscopy to study excitons and charge-carrier dynamics in 2D TMDCs for quantum photonics.

You will work on defect-based single-photon emitters, collaborate with the University of Amsterdam and industry partners (Toyota Motor Europe and Quix), and may engage in computational modelling of charge carriers and excitons.

Qualifications

• Relevant university degree in physics, materials science or chemistry.
• PhD degree with experience in ultrafast laser spectroscopy.

Responsibilities

• Perform pump-probe spectroscopy on 2D TMDCs to study exciton and charge-carrier dynamics.
• Investigate formation, motion and decay of photogenerated species at defect sites.
• Monitor dynamics using optical (TA, PL) and terahertz conductivity methods.
• Collaborate with industrial partners and explore computational modelling if interested.
