About this position
This postdoctoral project at CNRS focuses on dielectric metasurfaces for single-photon sources in the context of quantum nano-optics. The work aims to design and optimize high-index periodic metasurfaces that can strongly control the emission of quantum emitters, including their directionality, polarization, and spectral properties.
The project combines numerical modelling, deep-learning-based inverse design, and experimental validation. A major part of the research is the extension of the torchGDM toolbox to model quantum emitters coupled to periodic metasurfaces supporting bound states in the continuum (BICs), together with the development of physics-informed neural networks and multi-objective neural models for fast, multi-scale optimization.
On the experimental side, the postdoctoral researcher will work on iterative cycles of design, fabrication, and characterization. Optimized metasurfaces will be tested on optical setups at CEMES, with precise emitter positioning in collaboration with LPCNO, and fabrication carried out in the LAAS cleanroom. The measurements include low-temperature optical characterization, time-resolved photoluminescence mapping, and single-photon statistics.
The position sits within the CEMES–LAAS synergy and the broader Q-META effort, bringing together quantum nano-optics, numerical simulation, and nanofabrication to move beyond the limits of individual nanoantennas.
