Assistant Professor in Experimental Atomic Physics

København Ø

A four-year assistant professor position in the field of experimental atomic physics and quantum optics is available at the QUANTOP laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute. The successful candidate will lead the research on quantum simulations with cold and trapped neutral atoms coupled to a photonic bandgap waveguide. Experimental experience with ultracold trapped atoms is expected. Experience in design and fabrication of photonic bandgap structures and waveguides is a significant plus.

The assistant professor’s duties will primarily include research, including obligations with regard to publication/scientific communication and research-based teaching with associated examination obligations within Experimental Atomic Physics. To a limited extent this may also include performance of other duties.

Assessment of applicants will primarily consider their level of documented, internationally competitive research. The ability to attract external funding will be considered together with outreach qualifications. Teaching qualifications are not mandatory but documented teaching qualifications and teaching experience will be considered.

The six criteria (research, teaching, societal impact, organisational contribution, external funding and leadership) are considered a framework for the overall assessment of candidates. Furthermore, each candidate must be assessed according to the specific requirements stated in the job advertisement.
