Research Scientist (Quantum Materials)

About This Role

A Research Scientist (Quantum Materials) role at NTU's Centre for Quantum Sensing Technology requires a minimally PhD candidate with experience in computational work based on density functional theory and quantum chemistry to develop materials for cold-atom sensing, quantum photonics, and superconducting sensor technol

Responsibilities

• Develop materials related simulations in consultation with PI to inform experimental process design.
• Ensure conduct and proper documentations of designs/methods of simulation, cross-validation against experiments.
• Assist PI in ensuring alignment of computation/simulation support for project objectives and provide relevant trainings.
• Support PI in events, publications, proposals, planning, monitoring, reporting and technical operation needs related to the lab's mission.
• Contribute modelling work towards optimisation tasks for device fabrication and instrumentation work as needed.

Requirements

• Minimally PhD in physics, engineering, quantum chemistry, or materials engineering.
• Relevant prior experience in computational work based on density functional theory and quantum related work.
• Demonstrated collaborations with experimentalists would be advantageous.
