The posting

School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is one of the founding Schools of the Nanyang Technological University. Built on a culture of excellence, the School is renowned for its high academic standards and research. With over 3,000 undergraduates students and 2,000 graduate students it is one of the largest EEE schools in the world and ranks 4th in the field of Electrical & Electronic Engineering in the 2025 QS World University Rankings by Subjects. Today, the School has become one of the world’s largest engineering schools that nurtures competent engineers and researchers. Each year, the School graduates over a thousand students who are ready to take on great ambitions and challenges.

The position will be based at LUMINOUS! Centre of Excellence for Semiconductor Lighting and Displays, a leading research centre under EEE. LUMINOUS! focuses on semiconductor device research, fabrication, and applications in next-generation lighting, displays, and electronics. With state-of-the-art cleanroom and characterization facilities, the centre brings together interdisciplinary expertise in materials science, device engineering, and system integration to address key challenges in energy-efficient and sustainable technologies.

The LUMINOUS! Centre of Excellence for Semiconductor Lighting and Displays at NTU is seeking a Research Fellow (Single-Photon Emission Characterization & Ultrafast Optical Instrumentation) to support an NRF-funded project on electrically driven single-photon-emitting diodes based on colloidal quantum wells. The role involves setting up single-photon-emission characterization capabilities and performing advanced electrical, optical, and single-photon characterization of quantum optoelectronic devices. The successful candidate will contribute to cutting-edge research in quantum photonics, single-photon technologies, and next-generation semiconductor devices.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the installation, commissioning, calibration, and optimization of a state-of-the-art single-photon-emission characterization platform together with ultrafast and time-resolved optical instrumentation.
  • Develop, implement, and continuously improve advanced optical measurement methodologies, including photoluminescence (PL), electroluminescence (EL), time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC), Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) interferometry for g²(0) measurements, fluorescence lifetime analysis, and quantum efficiency characterization.
  • Investigate fundamental carrier transport, exciton formation, recombination dynamics, photon antibunching, emission coherence, Purcell enhancement, and light-matter interactions to establish performance-limiting mechanisms and guide device optimization.
  • Publish research findings in leading international journals and present results at prestigious international conferences.
  • Contribute to competitive grant proposals, technical reporting, project management, equipment procurement, laboratory management, and compliance with laboratory safety regulations.
  • Mentor graduate students, research assistants, and junior researchers, while fostering a collaborative and innovative research environment.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Applied Physics, Optical Engineering, Photonics, Physics, or a related discipline.
  • Strong hands-on experience in optical and electrical characterization of semiconductor/optoelectronic devices, including PL, EL, spectroscopy, and time-resolved measurements.
  • Experience in designing, setting up, commissioning, and operating advanced ultrafast optical instrumentation and characterization systems.
  • Experience with TCSPC, FLIM, transient absorption spectroscopy, quantum yield measurements, and single-photon characterization techniques (including g²(0) and HBT interferometry) is highly desirable.
  • Knowledge of quantum optoelectronics, quantum light sources, excitonic materials, colloidal quantum wells, quantum dots, optical cavities, or integrated photonic devices is an advantage.
  • Strong publication record in high-impact peer-reviewed journals with excellent scientific communication and technical writing skills.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in multidisciplinary research teams, with strong analytical, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills. Knowledge of quantum optoelectronics, excitonic devices, or single-photon sources is an advantage.
  • Proven track record of high-quality publications and strong scientific communication skills.
  • Demonstrated experience independently designing, setting up, and operating ultrafast/time-resolved optical instrumentation, including fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), transient absorption spectroscopy, TCSPC-based lifetime studies, and quantum yield measurement systems, is highly valued.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
