Postdoctoral Researcher in Novel SWIR and Room-Temperature MWIR CQD Photodetectors

KAUST · Physical Science and Engineering Division

  • Thuwal, Makkah, Saudi Arabia
  • Engineering

The FuN Lab has made significant advances in III–V colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) and extended-SWIR PbS materials for high-performance infrared photodetectors and imaging systems. We invite applications for two postdoctoral positions focused on next-generation SWIR and room-temperature MWIR photodetectors based on III–V, Ag₂Te, and related CQDs. We seek a postdoctoral researcher to develop novel SWIR and exploratory room-temperature MWIR photodetectors based on CQDs. The position focuses on device architecture design, charge-transport-layer engineering, dark-current suppression, metasurface int

Postdoctoral Researcher in III–V CQD Surface Chemistry and Ligand Engineering

KAUST · Physical Science and Engineering Division

  • Thuwal, Makkah, Saudi Arabia
  • Chemistry

The FuN lab has made significant advances in III–V colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) and extended-SWIR PbS materials for high-performance infrared photodetectors and imaging systems. We invite applications for two postdoctoral positions focused on next-generation SWIR and room-temperature MWIR photodetectors based on III–V, Ag₂Te, and related CQDs. The project aims to establish a materials-to-device platform using InAs-, InSb-, Ag₂Te-, and extended-SWIR PbS/PbSe-based CQDs, with emphasis on surface reconstruction, ligand engineering, precursor chemistry, energetic band alignment, low-trap-density

Postdoctoral Position in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics

King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals · College of Engineering and Physics/ Physics Department/ Vogl group

  • Dhahran, Saudi Arabia
  • Physics

Postdoctoral research positions are available in the group of Michael Vogl at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM). Candidates with expertise in strongly correlated electron systems, quantum magnetism, and emergent non-equilibrium phases of matter, quantum information and related fields are encouraged to apply. The successful applicant will join the research environment at KFUPM in a newly established center focusing on Quantum Condensed Matter Physics and Quantum Computing (Interdisciplinary Research Center for Advanced Quantum Computing, AQC). This center is headed by famou
