Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

 

The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.

 

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to contribute to a project focused on using neural network quantum states and advanced machine learning algorithms for simulating realistic microscopic Hamiltonians for quantum spin liquid phases and other frustration driven quantum phases in interacting spin systems, that cannot be efficiently simulated using conventional numerical approaches.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Construct realistic microscopic model Hamiltonians relevant to real quantum magnets that can host quantum spin liquid states, focusing on Kagome lattice antiferromagnets and the Kitaev model

  • Use neural network quantum states with deep artificial neural network architectures to simulate such Hamiltonians

  • Construct experimentally observable properties of quantum spin liquid states

  • Collaborate with experimentalists to identify signatures of spin liquid states in candidate materials

  • Extend to other frustration-driven novel quantum phases

 

Job Requirements:

  • Ph.D. in Physics or related field

  • Knowledge of quantum many body physics and quantum phase transitions

  • Familiarity with neural network quantum states and artificial neural networks

  • Experience in collaborating with experimentalists

  • Proficiency in computational methods

 

The College of Science seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.

 

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
