Postdoctoral Position in Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy of Quantum Materials

The FERROIC Lab (Laboratory for Functional Ferroic Materials) at ETH Zurich applies advanced ultrafast laser spectroscopy from the Terahertz to the ultraviolet spectral range to discover, control and understand novel quantum phenomena in condensed‑matter systems. By combining state‑of‑the‑art spectroscopy with strongly correlated electron systems, we seek to uncover fundamental physical phenomena that emerge far from equilibrium.

Our laboratory continuously develops and expands its experimental capabilities rather than relying solely on established instrumentation. We operate advanced ultrafast laser spectroscopy platforms spanning the spectral range from the Terahertz to the ultraviolet and continuously implement new experimental concepts and measurement capabilities. Our research is complemented by nonlinear optical microscopy, cryogenic experiments, atomic force microscopy, magnetic and dielectric characterization, oxide thin‑film growth, and close collaboration with l...
