-Present research work at national and international conferences
-Participate in the supervision of doctoral students.

Compétences

-PhD thesis in nanophotonics, nonlinear optics, materials science or equivalent.
-Experience in the synthesis of nanoparticles with strong optical nonlinear responses.
-Experience in nonlinear microscopy.
-Demonstrated experience in writing scientific papers.
-Experience in managing research projects.
-Team player.

Contexte de travail

Institut Langevin is a joint laboratory of CNRS, ESPCI Paris and PSL University. It conducts research into many fields of wave physics, from optics and acoustics to electromagnetism and nanophotonics. The research will be carried out in the laboratory's “Materials, Resonances & Interfaces” theme, under the supervision of Sébastien Bidault and Samuel Grésillon, and in close collaboration with two PhD students. The research project is in collaboration with the Kastler Brossel laboratory in Paris and the Fresnel Institute in Marseille.
