Recruitment/Posting Title	Post-Doctoral Associate in Experimental Condensed Matter Physics, Raman/optical spectroscopy
Department	SAS - Physics & Astronomy
Salary	Commensurate With Experience
Posting Summary	The Department of Physics and Astronomy/SAS at Rutgers University plans to hire a Postdoctoral Associate in the field of experimental condensed matter physics to work on a project related to spectroscopic studies of unconventional density waves and superconductivity in quasi-2D materials in Prof. Girsh Blumberg's group. Prof. Blumberg's group specializes in low energy electrodynamics in solids with strong electron correlations. The experimental techniques include Raman and optical spectroscopies at ultra-low frequencies. The areas of interest center on various exotic electronic states of matter at low temperatures, including unconventional superconductors, quantum magnets, topological insulators, materials in proximity to quantum critical points, to name a few. Considerable flexibility can be built into research program of a postdoctoral applicant.
