Are you passionate about exploring the frontiers of light-matter
interaction? Join us in
pushing the boundaries of physical chemistry and quantum optics.
The Laboratory for Molecular Nano-Optics offers a highly
interdisciplinary and dynamic research environment. Located at Tel Aviv
University, our lab is part of a vibrant campus community and a leading
center for innovation and technology.
We are always looking for curious, creative, and ambitious young
researchers to join us as Postdoctoral Fellows, as well as MSc and
PhD students. Our work sits at the intersection of Nano-Optics, Physical
Chemistry, and Quantum Physics. We offer hands-on research training in:
-Polaritonic
Chemistry: Using optical
cavities to modify chemical reaction rates and pathways through strong
light-matter coupling.
-Ultrafast Laser
Spectroscopy: Developing
advanced tools for probing energy flow and molecular dynamics on
femtosecond and picosecond timescales.
-Nanofabrication: Designing and building the next
generation of photonic and plasmonic structures.
-THz
Spectroscopy: Exploring
collective molecular vibrations and intermolecular dynamics in the
Terahertz regime.
Postdoctoral Positions
We seek talented and enthusiastic experimentalists to lead key research
initiatives. We offer a vibrant, international research setting with
state-of-the-art facilities for ultrafast spectroscopy and nano-optics.
Positions are typically for a period of two years with the possibility of
extension.
Requirements:
-PhD in physical chemistry or physics (awarded
no more than 4 years prior to application).
-An excellent
research track record.
-Strong experimental
background in ultrafast spectroscopy, nonlinear optics, and/or optical
microscopy.
-Curiosity and
creativity.
-Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative, international team.
-Fluency in
English with proven
scientific writing skills.
How to Apply: Interested candidates should submit their application as a single PDF file to [email protected].
Please include:
-Curriculum
Vitae.
-Publication List (including international conference
presentations).
-1-page
Motivation Letter highlighting how your specific experience fits our research goals.
-Contact details
for 3 references,
including your PhD advisor.
Graduate Student Opportunities (MSc & PhD)
We welcome motivated students from Physics, Chemistry, or Materials
Science backgrounds. As a member of our lab, you will gain hands-on experience
with state-of-the-art optical setups and develop a deep understanding of
quantum light-matter interactions.
