Senior Research Associate (A2597)

Applications are invited for the post-doctoral position (Senior Research Associate) to work with Prof. Henning Schomerus on topological aspects of quantum-optical and interacting bosonic systems. This research is carried out within the EPSRC-funded Programme Grant “Semiconductor Quantum Photonics: Control of Spin, Exciton and Photon Interactions by Nano-Photonic Design” and involves external collaborators in Sheffield.

The research aims at developing means to induce topological states into bosonic systems, and informs the design of experiments on structured exciton-polariton condensates and topological lasers. 

You will hold a PhD in Physics and should have expertise in theoretical descriptions of quantum-optical and interacting bosonic systems.

The post is available from 1 June 2019 or as soon as possible thereafter, and is funded for 14 months.

For further information about the post, please contact Professor Henning Schomerus (h.schomerus@lancaster.ac.uk).
