Scientist, Optical Technologies & Flat Optics (IMRE)
Roles & Responsibilities
Job Overview
We are seeking a talented and driven Scientist to join our team working on next-generation optical sensing devices. The successful candidate will focus on the fabrication and characterization of advanced nanophotonic structures, including metasurface-based sensing platforms, with applications in high-sensitivity detection and integrated photonic systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and fabricate optical sensing devices, including metasurface-based platforms.
- Perform optical and electrical characterization of sensing devices to evaluate performance and sensitivity.
- Design and optimize fabrication processes for nanophotonic structures.
- Conduct experimental studies and analyze results based on principles of optical physics and nanophotonics.
- Work in a cleanroom environment to implement micro- and nano-fabrication processes.
- Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to improve device functionality and integration.
- Document experimental procedures, results, and contribute to technical reports and publications.
Qualifications & Requirements
- PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Photonics, or a related discipline, with 2 years of relevant experience
- Strong understanding of nanophotonics and optical physics.
- Hands-on experience in optical sensing devices and metasurface fabrication.
- Experience with optical and electrical characterization techniques.
- Proven experience working in a cleanroom environment, including:
- Photolithography
- Electron Beam Lithography (EBL)
- Thin film deposition and nanofabrication processes
- Ability to independently design experiments and solve technical challenges.
Preferred Skills
- Familiar with simulation tools (e.g., FDTD, COMSOL).
- Experience in integrated photonics or lab-on-chip sensing systems.
- Strong publication record in relevant research areas.
The above eligibility criteria are not exhaustive. A*STAR may include additional selection criteria based on its prevailing recruitment policies. These policies may be amended from time to time without notice. We regret that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
