Nanophotonics Technology Postdoctoral positions 

We are offering a PhD and a post-doctoral position to work in the design, fabrication, and characterization of chiral circuits in silicon-photonics integrated technology. The final goal is the observation of chiral optical forces exerted by such circuits on nanoparticles and molecules in liquid environments as well as the separation of enantiomers via optical forces on a chip. Research activities will be performed within a European project and in collaboration with different European institutes, universities and companies.

Post-doctoral position: the candidates must have a PhD degree in one of these topics: photonic integrated circuits, chiral optics, molecular nanophotonics. They must show extensive expertise in design and optical characterization. Experience in clean-room nanofabrication will be also considered.
