Research Fellow - Nanophotonics & Free-Electron EUV

Nanyang Technological University; Singapore; On-site; SGD 60,000 - 90,000; Full time

Job summary

NTU Singapore's School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering invites a Research Fellow to design and implement experiments that merge nanophotonics with free-electron sources, aiming at compact EUV light generation for spectroscopy and nanolithography.

The role requires a PhD in a related field, strong photonics background, and experience with electron sources, vacuum chambers, and EM simulations. Excellent communication and teamwork are essential for success.

Qualifications

• PhD degree in physics, mathematics, engineering or related field.
• Strong background in photonics and use of electron sources (DC/RF guns) and vacuum chambers.
• Exposure to free-electron instrumentation such as SEM/TEM is relevant.
• Working knowledge of electromagnetic simulations.
• Good written and oral communication skills.
• Competent in teamwork and presenting results; able to work under pressure.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement experiments combining free electron-driven EUV generation.
• Characterize EUV properties of nanostructures and demonstrate enhanced EUV emission.
• Lead papers and publish in high-impact journals.
• Present at top-tier international conferences.
• Assist PI with grant writing and supervision of students.
• Provide laboratory operation support for the project.
