Research Associate in Experimental Photonics

Loughborough, United Kingdom Loughborough University Full time

**School of Science**

We are delighted to offer a post for a Research Fellow in Photonics funded by the Leverhulme Trust. The post is part of the Leverhulme Trust Project HYPERSIGHT - Terahertz 4-Dimensional Microscopy (about £1M worth) and directly stems from the activities of the EU-ERC Project TIMING (about £1.5M worth) on Time-Resolved Nonlinear Ghost Imaging.

Background: generally, access to microscopic domains is fundamentally limited by the diffraction law. Capturing objects smaller than the electromagnetic wavelength is challenging. Interestingly, in many domains, a core motivator of electromagnetic sensing is the extraction of the spectral fingerprint of an object. Yet, the ability to recover sub-wavelength 3-dimensional objects preserving spectral features (an additional dimension) of all of its parts is sharply beyond our abilities. HYPERSIGHT aims to use Terahertz radiation combined with ultrafast Photonics to push the boundary of what we can see in the microscopic world, sharply beyond the state of the art. The goal requires a foundational study and a typical high-risk high-gain research approach, with dense fundamental and applied research outputs and the generation novel intellectual properties of industrial interest. The research fellow will be part of large-concerted action towards the project goals and will be leader of a specific complex research task with the possibility to shape the project future development and also the creation of novel research action following the outcomes.

We believe the project goal to be very disruptive on the field and impossible to achieve with simple incremental action above the art. The research team will express a connected theoretical-experimental effort, connecting several disciplines e.g. terahertz, nonlinear ultrafast photonics, complexity, several advanced modelling approaches (machine learning and inverse problems).
