Opportunities

Quantum Solid State Physics Research Group at NTT Basic Research Labs is occasionally seeking highly motivated postdoctoral researchers as needed for the following research topics. We also accept interns. If you are interested, please contact Dr. Norio Kumada.

Plasmons and ultrafast electric transport

We study THz charge dynamics in solid-state materials using on-chip THz spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. While our current main target is graphene plasmonics, we plan to apply these techniques to other materials as well.

Principal investigator: Dr. Norio Kumada

Quantum transport in two-dimensional materials

We seek a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to work with us on exploring novel transport phenomena in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials. Our current projects mainly focus on superconductivity in transition metal dichalcogenides, but we are planning to extend our target to other 2D superconductors, magnetic 2D materials and quantum spin liquids for uncovering and modulating their exotic properties.

Principal investigator: Dr. Taro Wakamura
