Postdoctoral Position – Anyon Braiding Statistics
We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to lead experimental efforts to probe anyon braiding statistics. The project will use Fabry–Pérot and Mach–Zehnder interferometers, combining state-of-the-art nanofabrication with low-temperature transport measurements. Applicants with strong low-temperature measurement expertise, and experience with 2D materials, are especially encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities:
-
VdW heterostructures stacking and fabricating experimental devices
-
Low-temperature transport measurements and data analysis
-
Mentoring graduate students
Requirements:
-
PhD in condensed matter / solid state physics
-
Strong expertise in low-temperature measurements is required
-
Experience in nanofabrication is a strong advantage
-
Previous experience in 2D materials is an advantage
We offer:
-
State-of-the-art transport measurements setups, including 4 dilution fridges equipped with superconducting magnets (vector 9/1/1, 12, 14 and 20 T)
-
Access to cleanroom with any necessary nanofabrication equipment, including 3 motorized dry stacking stations, laser and e-beam high-throughput direct write tools, and a 6-meter Ar glovebox
Application must include:
-
CV
-
List of publications
-
Contact information for two referees
