Introduction of the Lab/ Research Field

The Gu lab explores theoretically how quantum light sources (e.g., entangled photons, squeezed light, vacuum field) interact with complex molecules and materials in nonlinear molecular spectroscopy, quantum spectroscopy, and polaritonic chemistry.

We primarily are interested in:

(i) designing spectroscopic techniques with novel quantum light sources;

(ii) exploit optical cavities to tune the physicochemical properties of molecules by strong light-matter coupling;

(iii) developing quantum dynamical methods for molecules, nanoscale, and solid-state materials (with and without cavities);

(iv) developing a general Python-based program to simulate time-resolved signals such as pump-probe and 2DES for complex molecular systems;

(v) whatever creative ideas you may have.

Job Description

Position: Postdoctoral Fellow (2)

Requirements:

1) Age under 35.

2) Background in theoretical and computational chemistry, physics, and related fields.

3) Write in English.

4) Programming experience (preferred).

Compensation and Benefits

The research team offers a competitive compensation package commensurate with the selected candidate’s qualifications and experience. Applications for relevant projects and programs will be encouraged and supported.

Postdoc(s) selected for China Postdoctoral Science Foundation or Zhejiang Province Selected Funding for Postdoctoral Research Projects will be entitled to further receive a supporting fund of the same amount from the Hangzhou municipal government.

Postdoc(s) who work in Hangzhou on a full-time basis after completing their postdoctoral research will be eligible for applying an allowance of 400,000RMB from the Hangzhou municipal government.
