Research Fellow (Experiment)

at  NANYANG TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). MAS covers diverse topics ranging from pure mathematics to the applications of mathematics in cryptography, computing, business, and finance. PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.
The laboratory of Asst Prof Shen Yijie at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences is seeking a Research Fellow to contribute to a project focused on Photonic Skyrmions: Particle Topologies of Light in Free Space-Time

Key Responsibilities:

• Demonstrate and measure the breakthrough concepts in nanophotonics using optical sources such as transmission electron microscope
