Job description

Description

Our team is working on development of new generation of mid-infrared optical frequency combs and mode-locked lasers for future Earth and planetary science missions. These combs, based on a new class of semiconductor lasers, will provide enhanced sensitivity, and higher spectral resolution spectrometers. The postdoctoral researcher will have a unique opportunity to work on different aspects of this new development including but not limited to: (1) Design of the interband cascade lasers; (2) Device microfabrication; (3) Test and characterization and (4) integration into a dual frequency comb spectroscopy instrument.

Applicants should have a recent Ph.D. in electrical engineering, or a closely related field. Experiences with semiconductor laser devices modeling, fabrication and laser spectroscopy are highly desirable.
