We are seeking a Senior Research Fellow (SRF) who is highly skilled in and deeply passionate about computational electromagnetism and mathematical physics/engineering. The SRF should have strong background in computational methods for solving Maxwell’s equations – strong foundations in quantum electrodynamics (QED) are a significant bonus. The role of SRF will focus on developing ab initio theory and developing software to describe and study groundbreaking mechanisms in electron-photon and electron-matter interaction, pertaining to the compact, efficient generation of extreme ultraviolet light for applications including EUV spectroscopy and EUV nanolithography.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Computationally solve electrodynamics problems involving electron-photon and electron-matter interactions in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) regime

  • Develop new, efficient software for modeling unprecedented electromagnetic phenomena, using languages such as C++ and Python

  • Formulate new theories pertaining to EUV generation, obtained ab initio from Maxwell’s equations and quantum electrodynamics/quantum field theory

  • Lead papers and publish in high-impact journals

  • Present at top-tier international conferences.

  • Assist PI in writing grants and supervision of graduate and undergraduate students.

  • Provide logistical support pertaining to laboratory operation for the project.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD degree in physics, mathematics, engineering or related field

  • Strong background in electrodynamics simulations techniques

  • Strong background in C++, Python or similar languages

  • Strong background in theoretical physics and mathematical physics

  • Good written and oral communication skills

  • Proficiency in nanofabrication and experimental design

  • Interpersonal skill: Ability to work under pressure, Ability to work independently, develop solutions under strict timelines, meticulous and eye for details, excellent organizational / time management skills

  • Entry level candidates are welcome to apply

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
