The University of Sheffield seeks a Research Associate to develop perovskite-based photonic devices, focusing on electrically pumped condensation, optical gain in microcavities, and optical solitons in waveguides. The role involves synthesizing and characterizing 2D/3D perovskite thin films, engineering resonant cavity LED devices, and fabricating nanopatterned optical waveguide structures. Collaboration with spectroscopy experts and materials chemists is central. Experience in perovskite LED fabrication and characterization is essential, with desirable skills in photonic device development, optical modeling, and nanolithography.
