Applications will continue to be accepted until this date, but those received after the review date will only be considered if the position has not yet been filled.

Position description

The Ultrafast Nano-Optics Group at UC Berkeley is interested in probing and controlling light-matter interactions in condensed matter systems, with an emphasis on novel physical phenomena emerging in nanoscale structures and quantum phenomena in novel low dimensional materials. We develop and employ novel optical spectroscopy that simultaneously achieves ultrabroadband energy tunability, polarization control, nanometer spatial resolution, and femtosecond temporal resolution.

This position is to work on the project: "Nanoscale Hybrids: a new paradigm for energy efficient microelectronics". This is part of the DOE Microelectronics Energy Efficiency Research Center of Advanced Technologies. The work will use facilities at UC Berkeley and at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. This is a multidisciplinary project involving materials science, particle physics instrumentation, and electrical engineering.

The postdoctoral scholar will work closely with Prof. Feng Wang and with Dr. Maurice Garcia Sciveres on development and testing of nanoscale hybrid demonstrator devices. The development will use existing, custom integrated circuits as substrates onto which optoelectronic nanomaterials will be added. Testing will be carried out through the integrated circuit functions as well as with external devices. The postdoctoral scholar will be responsible for understanding the functionality and limitations of the demonstrators, for example, related to single photon detection. The postdoctoral scholar will have the opportunity to propose and develop new techniques for variations to address issues found or pursue novel concepts. The postdoctoral scholar will present results in meetings and workshops and will collaborate on preparing them for publication.

No more than three years of research experience post Ph.D.

Preferred qualifications
PhD in Physics. Graduate study in physics. Familiarity with experimental techniques involving photon detection. Familiarity with electronics testing and/or custom integrated circuits for experimental physics applications. Familiarity with clean room microfabrication steps such as basic lithography. Computer programming skills sufficient to run and modify custom software to capture and analyze data from instruments, FPGA boards, etc.
Advanced microfabrication skills. Theoretical knowledge of photonic devices. Integrated circuit design/simulation skills. Experience using photon sensors for scientific research. Experience with AI/ML. Publication record relevant to any of the mentioned qualifications.
