Original job description
The Nanomaterials and Spectroscopy Group at CFM is offering a postdoctoral position (1+1 years) starting on 1st of January 2027, to work with Prof. Yury Rakovich, in collaboration with Prof. Alexey Nikiti on the development of room-temperature chiral single-photon sources and integrated quantum-photonic chips.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the synthesis and stabilisation of perovskite quantum emitters, their integration with engineered photonic and plasmonic nanostructures, advanced single-photon spectroscopy, as well as theoretical modelling. The research will focus on achieving stable, high-purity single-photon emission with controlled polarization and directionality, with potential applications in quantum communication, photonic instrumentation, and quantum technologies.
This position will be funded thanks to the financial support received from the IKUR Strategy under the collaboration agreement between Ikerbasque Foundation and MPC on behalf of the Department of Science, Universities and Innovation of the Basque Government (Yury: IKUR27-QT12).
