About this position

The George Washington University, in collaboration with the NIST Materials Measurement Laboratory, is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow for the NIST Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. This high-tech research opportunity focuses on advancing Thermoreflectance Optical Pump-Probe methods to address thermal management challenges in next-generation microelectronics and Wide Bandgap Power Electronics. The successful candidate will work directly in the NIST NanoFab, designing and refining instrumentation for measuring thermal properties in thin-film and multilayer materials.

Key responsibilities include designing, building, and operating pump-probe setups, measuring thermal property data for various stakeholders, depositing and characterizing thin films in a cleanroom environment, and developing physics-based analysis software using MATLAB. The research is highly interdisciplinary, combining elements of physics, materials science, electrical engineering, and optics, with a strong emphasis on instrumentation and metrology.

Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in Physics, Optics, Materials Science, or Engineering, with specialized experience in thermoreflectance-based measurement instrumentation. A strong background in thermal metrology and optics, as well as experience with semiconductor manufacturing and device failure analysis, is required. Candidates must also be eligible for a Department of Commerce background check for facility access.

This postdoctoral fellowship offers the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in thermal management at the nanoscale, working alongside experts in the field and utilizing state-of-the-art facilities. The position is funded through the NIST PREP program, though specific stipend and funding details are not disclosed in the announcement. Interested candidates should apply via the provided application link and ensure they meet all eligibility requirements.
