We are seeking two part-time researchers to join the Vectorial Optics and Photonics Group at the Department of Engineering Science (central Oxford). The post is fixed-term from 1st July 2024 to 31st March 2025.
The postholder will work on the design and development of a new vectorial beam measurement system. Among other activities, this will involve investigating liquid crystal-based devices, adaptive optics systems, proposing/designing experimental measurement and control programs, procurement of components, documentation, and reporting of findings.
You should possess a PhD or DPhil (or be near completion) in a relevant subject, together with experience in the area of vectorial beam manipulation, liquid crystal, and/or polarimetric measurement. There is a possibility to underfill at Grade 6 (£31,502 - £37,386 p.a.) if the candidate holds a relevant degree/Masters and is working towards PhD/DPhil.
Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr Chao He (email: chao.he@eng.ox.ac.uk)
