Dr. Hanwei Gao’s research group in the Department of Physics, Florida State University has an immediate opening of a postdoctoral research position in the direction of broadly defined halide perovskites and optoelectronics.

The Group

Dr. Gao’s research interests lie in light-matter interactions in nanostructured materials. Recently, his group has been primarily investigating materials processing, physical properties and novel optoelectronic functionalities of halide perovskites, a new class of organic-inorganic hybrid semiconductors with tremendous potential for low-cost, high-performance optoelectronic technology. More details of the research group can be found at www.hwgao.net

The Position

The postdoctoral appointment can begin immediately with a one-year term and is renewable based on performance. The appointee will be offered competitive salaries (with a minimum of $47,500 annually) and a comprehensive benefit package including health insurance. The successful candidate selected for this position will be involved in one or multiple research projects concerning charge transport, carrier dynamics, structure-property correlations, and/or demonstration of novel functionalities in perovskite-based devices. The position offers an interdisciplinary research environment with collaborative opportunities with physicists, chemists and materials scientists nationwide and worldwide. 

A PhD in physics, chemistry, materials Science, or related engineering disciplines is required for this position. Competitive candidates should have skills with materials synthesis/processing, optical and electrical characterizations, and/or nanoscale device fabrication. Experience on thin film growth (CVD/PVD) and/or semiconductor device physics will be a plus. Other requirements include proficiency in English (verbal and written) and being able to work in a team.

How to Apply

To apply for the position, please send your application directly to hanwei.gao@fsu.edu. Please include in the application (i) a cover letter describing your background and research interest, (ii) a CV with a list of publications, and (iii) the contact information of two or more references.
