Postdoctoral Researcher in Integrated Photonics and Optical Frequency Metrology at George Washington University George Washington University in United States

The George Washington University, in collaboration with the NIST Professional Research Experience (PREP) program, is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join the Quantum Measurement Division’s Applied Electrical Metrology Group. This position offers the opportunity to work on next-generation Integrated Photonic Sensors and Standards, with a focus on developing Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) based ac-dc voltage transfer standards and advancing ultra-sensitive nanophotonic thermometry.

Key research areas include designing, fabricating, and characterizing novel PIC-based devices, as well as developing advanced optical read-out strategies using laser locking, spectroscopy, and frequency combs. The research spans the domains of Integrated Photonics and Optical Frequency Metrology, making it ideal for candidates with expertise in these fields.

Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in Natural Sciences, Engineering, or a related field, and have hands-on experience in Laser Spectroscopy, Frequency Combs, Integrated Photonics, or Micro-/Nanofabrication. The position is part of the NIST PREP program, though specific funding details are not provided. This is an excellent opportunity for those interested in cutting-edge nanophotonics research and the development of advanced measurement standards.

To apply, candidates should use the provided application link and ensure their materials highlight relevant research experience and skills. For more information, applicants may contact Professor David Broniatowski at George Washington University.
