Offer Description

We are seeking a PostDoc to conduct research on diamond nano-optics. We are looking for a person that can join our group as soon as possible as the position is funded until the end of 2024, with a possible one-year extension.

The project is focused on the study of novel optical properties of diamond light-emitting optical centers embedded in diamond thin films and single-crystal diamond. The PostDoc will perform time-resolved spectroscopy at low temperatures to investigate photoluminescence decay, quantum yield, and single-photon emission of the NV, SiV, and GeV centers in photonic structures using state-of-the-art experimental equipment. Furthermore, he will have a chance to learn about the CVD growth of diamond samples.

Position: The fellow will be part of a young research team. She/he will be responsible mostly for the experimental study of the fabricated samples. But also will have a chance to fabricate the samples. Namely, she/he will work in the optical laboratory using ultrafast fs laser, streak camera and pump&probe technique, streak camera, TCSPC, and optical He cryostat)  etc. The fellow will build new experimental setups, program them with LABVIEW, analyze the data, and write manuscripts.
