About this position
Texas A&M University is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Institute for Quantum Science in College Station, Texas. The role centers on experimental and theoretical research in quantum optics, with opportunities to contribute to projects such as excimer lasers for laser inertial fusion energy.
The position is based within a research environment connected to Texas A&M’s Department of Physics and Astronomy, which highlights strengths in applied physics, atomic physics, quantum optics, condensed matter physics, high-energy physics, and nuclear physics. The postdoc will work in an internationally active academic setting with access to the university’s broader research community and facilities.
The advertised research spans both theory and experiment, with emphasis on quantum optics and laser-related physics. The project suggests engagement with advanced optical phenomena, high-field and plasma-adjacent processes, and computational or analytical study relevant to laser-matter interaction and fusion-energy-adjacent applications.
This is a staff appointment at a major research university with a broad scientific environment and professional development resources.
Funding details
Funded from grant and/or contract funding; salary is commensurate with education and experience.
What's required
PhD in Physics, Optics, or Photonics is required. A well-qualified candidate may also have familiarity with non-linear optics, plasma physics, and ultrafast lasers, as well as knowledge of the Boltzmann and quantum Boltzmann equation and stimulated Brillouin and Raman scattering.
