o Bachelor’s degree plus 2 years of experience, or
o Master’s degree plus 1 year of experience
· Experimental research background in nonlinear optics or laser development is desired. The ideal candidate will possess experience with one of more of the following:
o quantum optics, (un)entangled photon source generation, single photon detection
o parametric (e.g., OPA and SPDC) or non-parametric (e.g., stimulated Raman scattering) frequency conversion techniques
o optical characterization or determination of nonlinear properties of materials
o experimentation with, or design of, hollow-core photonic crystal fiber
o optical fiber handling, aligning, and glass processing (e.g., splicing, cleaving)
o COMSOL Multiphysics software
· Experience with numerical modeling tools such as MATLAB or Mathematica is desired.
· Applicant must be qualified to obtain a DoD secret security clearance. Existing clearance desired.
