Overview

Physics and Astronomy, Dept. of Ny Munkegade 120 8000 Aarhus C

Fixed term full-time Stilling 1 Aug 2026 - 31 Jul 2028. ID: 20097

We are seeking applicants for a 2-year postdoctoral Stilling to join the Optomechanics group at the Department of Physics and Astronomy to work with nanoguitar optomechanical resonators.

Expected start date and duration of employment

This is a 2-year Stilling from 1 August 2026 or as soon as possible.

The aim of the project is to develop “nanoguitar” optomechanical resonators for fundamental optomechanics and practical gas sensing applications. The postdoctoral fellow is expected to contribute to the design, fabrication and optical/structural/mechanical characterization of “string-on-drums” silicon nitride resonators, based on the group’s recent progress in this direction, and their use in various applications for gas sensing and metrology. Skills in nanolithography, atomic force microscopy, optical interferometry, vacuum technology, and finite element method simulations will be involved.

Applicants should hold a PhD in Physics, Nano-science, Engineering or similar; experience with optics and/or nanofabrication is a plus.
