Job description

Offer DescriptionWe offer a junior postdoctoral position in newly formed CENTERA research unit (Center for Terahertz Research and Applications, head prof. Wojciech Knap) of the CEZAMAT Center of Advanced Materials and Technologies, Warsaw University of Technology.The successfull applicant will join WorkGroup 2 (led by prof. Marek Potemski) investigating (experimentation and assistance in crystal growth) new materials and their modulated (quasi 1D and 2D) structures with elementary excitations (such as, electronic excitations, magnons, plasmons, phonons, and their coupled, polaronic forms) in the THz range. The aim is to identify the materials/structures with the specific properties, well adapted for THz radiation generation, detection or screening and for a new generation of THz modulators.Key responsibilites at the position include conducting research on THz structures/devices based on low dimesional systems:1.
