City: Ottawa

Organizational Unit: Metrology Research Centre

Classification: RO

Tenure: Term

Duration: 2 years

Language Requirements: English

Work arrangements: Due to the nature of the work and operational requirements, this position will require full-time physical presence at the NRC work location identified.

At the NRC, we recognize that Indigenous candidates may have important connections to their communities and you may be eligible for an exception to this work arrangement. Alternative work arrangements may also be considered to accommodate candidates as required. To learn more about these options, please contact the NRC Hiring team using the contact information below

The program

The NRC’s Postdoctoral Fellowship program offers PDFs access to unique world-class facilities and the opportunity to work alongside multi-disciplinary teams of expert researchers and technicians on projects of critical importance to Canada. PDFs will carry out research on innovative research projects, with opportunities for career development (publications and/or industry interaction).

PDFs will be offered appointments to the staff of the National Research Council on a term basis and will be offered salaries and benefits currently available to Research Officers. Salaries commensurate with experience are taxable and subject to other deductions. As a guide, the current annual PhD recruiting rate is $83,985. In addition PDFs will be allocated a travel fund to support their work.

Project title

Squeezing the Limits: A Quantum-Enhanced Raman Imaging Platform for Ultratrace Chemical Detection

The role

Sensitivity remains a fundamental limitation in chemical imaging, restricting characterization of materials in complex environments. Overcoming this requires enhancing signal or reducing background and noise. The candidate will address both within a single imaging framework, leveraging patented NRC knowhow and ongoing quantum light source developments to establish a quantum‑enhanced chemical imaging platform based on stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy that combines signal enhancement, background suppression, and quantum noise reduction.

The candidate will join two ongoing research projects in key application areas for the Canadian government: nanoplastics and critical minerals. For nanoplastics, tracking and locating plastic particles will help determine how plastic exposure impacts biological processes. For critical minerals, rapidly screening rare species will lead to increased yields and reduced waste in mining. By the end of the project, the candidate will be positioned to help lead future applications of advanced imaging to priority areas for Canada.

Education

PhD degree in electrical engineering, optics, physics, engineering physics or a closely related field.

For information on certificates and diplomas issued abroad, please see Degree equivalency

Experience

Hands-on experience in a scientific lab setting and using a variety of laboratory test equipment;
Experience working with quantum optics, nonlinear optics and/or atomic and molecular physics;

The following may be considered an asset:

Python or other programming experience;
Experience working in metrology;
Experience with nanoscale material characterization
Experience with nonlinear optical spectroscopy
Experience in optical spectroscopy
