We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join the SPRINT project, an ambitious research project developing the next generation of ultra-fast and ultra-sensitive imaging systems. The project aims to create an ultrafast single-photon camera using SNSPD arrays.
The successful candidate will work at the intersection of nanotechnology, photonics, superconducting devices, RF engineering, cryogenics, and advanced imaging, contributing to both fundamental research and real-world applications such as biomedical imaging, quantum technologies, and LiDAR.
Applicants must hold a PhD in Physics or a related field with strong experimental experience in quantum, optical, or nanoscale systems. Background in superconducting devices and cryogenics, RF/microwave engineering, and photonics is desirable. Familiarity with SNSPDs is a plus.
TU Delft (Delft University of Technology)
Working at TU Delft means contributing to solutions that really make a difference.
For over 180 years, we have been training engineers who make an impact worldwide in companies, government bodies, or as entrepreneurs. Our alumni turn knowledge into concrete solutions for the challenges of today and tomorrow.
These challenges are changing rapidly. That is why we focus on themes such as energy, climate, digitalisation, artificial intelligence (AI), and smart mobility every day. Our education and research are directly aligned with what society needs now and in the future.
At TU Delft, our people make the difference. With their knowledge and curiosity, our staff provide a high-quality education and conduct pioneering research that extends beyond the campus. You will have the opportunity to take the initiative, work with others, and grow as a professional.
Working at TU Delft means join an international community of professionals and students. Together, we create knowledge, innovations, and solutions that help move the world forward.
With more than 1,100 employees, including 150 pioneering principal investigators, as well as a population of about 3,600 passionate students, the Faculty of Applied Sciences is an inspiring scientific ecosystem. Focusing on key enabling technologies, such as quantum- and nanotechnology, photonics, biotechnology, synthetic biology and materials for energy storage and conversion, our faculty aims to provide solutions to important problems of the 21st century. To that end, we educate innovative students in broad Bachelor's and specialist Master's programmes with a strong research component. Our scientists conduct ground-breaking fundamental and applied research in the fields of Life and Health Science & Technology, Nanoscience, Chemical Engineering, Radiation Science & Technology, and Engineering Physics. We are also training the next generation of high school teachers.
