PhD student position Experimental Molecular Physics, Sorbonne Univeristy, Paris, France
The project focuses on ultra-high-resolution molecular spectroscopy, employing sub-Hz mid-infrared (MIR) Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs), to perform tests of fundamental physics on cold polyatomic molecules. It is at the forefront of cold molecule research and frequency metrology.
The ideal candidate should have a strong foundation in physics or chemical physics, particularly in areas such as spectroscopy, laser physics, molecular physics, and quantum optics. Proficiency in experimental techniques, data analysis, and computational modelling is highly desirable. Creativity, problem-solving skills, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in an interdisciplinary environment are also key.
