The nanophotonics group is led by Edo Waks, and is part of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.  Our group is part of the newly formed Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), as well as the Inistute for Research in Electronics and Applied Physics (IREAP).  JQI brings together leading researchers from both NIST and Maryland to study quantum coherence and quantum information, while IREAP combines the expertise of top scientists from Departments of Physics, Electrical Engineering, and Material Science to perform highly multidisciplinary research.  Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers working in the nanophotnics group will have the opportunity to establish close ties with researchers at Maryland, NIST, and IREAP.  They will also have access to state-of-the-art nanofabrication facilities at the University of Maryland Fablab and NIST.

Students and and postdoctoral candidates interested in research positions in the nanophotonics group at the University of Meryland, College Park, should contact the PI directly at edowaks at umd.edu. Applicants should send a detailed CV along with the names of 3-4 references. Please make the header of your email is “Nanophotonics Research Position” to ensure that it is appropriately received.
