Postdoctoral Researcher with expertise in Nanophotonics, Nanofabrication, MEMS, and Optical Engineering. Open positions include, but are not limited to, the following research directions:
- Nanophotonic devices and metamaterials for light control and advanced optical functionalities.
- MEMS-integrated photonics for reconfigurable and adaptive optical systems.
- Nonlinear optics and spectroscopy for light–matter interaction studies.
- Quantum photonics leveraging 2D materials, photonic crystals, and other nanostructures.
- Optical instrumentation and interferometry for high-precision measurements.
We welcome applicants with strong experimental backgrounds in nanofabrication, optical characterization, and device design. Experience with cleanroom processing, laser systems, and computational modeling (e.g., FDTD, RCWA, COMSOL) is highly desirable.
Applicants should hold a recent Ph.D. in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Material Science, or a related field. Having a fellowship or being self-funded can significantly increase your chances of admission.
Information Requested:
Please submit the following to haoning (at) mit.edu:
- Curriculum Vitae with a list of publications.
- Cover email (include experience, interests, & goals; preferred start date; etc.)
- Contact information for at least 2 references (full name, context & duration in which they know you, email).
Review and screening of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
