Key Responsibilities

  • The Research Fellow will pursue scientific research broadly on topological quantum materials at QuantumX Labs, the research group of Prof. Ilya Belopolski, https://www.quantumx.science . Researchers will have the opportunity to,
  • Synthesize atomically precise thin films of new topological materials using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)
  • Develop innovative approaches to accelerate MBE materials development using in situ characterization & machine learning
  • Integrate epitaxial synthesis with exfoliated two-dimensional materials & devices
  • Characterize resistivity, Hall response, non-linear transport and magnetization
  • Explore electronic structure with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) at synchrotrons such as Diamond Light Source in the UK or the Advanced Light Source in the USA
  • Develop theoretical models of topological materials to understand & interpret experimental data
  • Leverage nanofabrication facilities & collaborate with other leading research groups at the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) and the School of Physical & Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
  • Collaborate worldwide to identify new candidate materials, perform ab initio calculations and complement our results with additional experimental techniques
  • Build out additional in-house experimental capabilities in optics, microwaves and quantum sensing

Requirements

  • Ph.D. in quantum physics, electrical engineering or a related discipline; familiarity with superconductivity, magnetic skyrmions, topological insulators, Mott insulators and/or quantum spin liquids
