(2) Research Associate Positions
Research Associate in Raman Spectroscopy of Graphene and Related Materials
We are looking for a Research Associate to work in the Cambridge Graphene Centre on Raman spectroscopy of graphene and related materials, within the Graphene and Quantum Flagships.
The aim is to perform Raman spectroscopy investigations of samples ranging from amorphous carbon to graphene and layered materials and hybrid systems. This will include plasmonic systems, working down to ultra-low and high frequencies, with multiple laser lines from IR to UV, with low and high temperature and magnetic field. The role holder will be expected to provide a full data analysis and interpretation, using a variety of analytical and computational tools, including group theory and density functional theory.
Funds for this post are available for two years in the first instance.

Research Associate in Silicon Photonics of Graphene and Related Materials
We are looking for a Research Associate to work in the Cambridge Graphene Centre on silicon photonics of graphene and related materials.
The aim is to develop a new class of integrated silicon photonic and optoelectronic devices exploiting graphene and related materials (GRMs), combining the versatile properties of GRMs with conventional three-dimensional semiconductors. Such devices will then be used in a wide range of applications such as on-chip optical routing, light emission, optical sensing and quantum communications. This is an ambitious research program, with a strong interdisciplinary nature, across photonics, plasmonics, device physics, electrical engineering and nanotechnology. It will require the realisation of novel devices for a wide range of applications such as photodetectors, optical modulators, optical amplifiers, lasers, biosensors etc. based on integrated GRMs.
