Physics of wide bandgap and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor electronic and optoelectronic devices

The U.S. Army DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory (ARL), located in Adelphi, MD outside of Washington, DC, is seeking Postdoctoral Fellows to study the physics of wide bandgap and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor electronic and optoelectronic devices. Fellows will have the opportunity to conduct their research using a wide variety of experimental capabilities, including ultrafast and continuous wave lasers and other light sources spanning the 200 nm to 2500 nm spectral range and a picosecond ultrafast electron source, coupled to experimental techniques such as time-resolved and continuous wave photoluminescence, cathodoluminescence, electron beam induced current, Terahertz spectroscopy, and other pump-probe photomodulation spectroscopies. The Fellows will also have the opportunity to collaborate with a multidisciplinary team that includes material growth, device fabrication, and both theoretical physics and device modeling, as well as with academic and industrial collaborators. This opportunity is part of the Army Research Laboratory Research Associateship Program (ARL-RAP), designed to significantly increase the involvement of creative and highly trained scientists and engineers from academia and industry in scientific and technical areas of interest and relevance to the Army.
