Research Fellow in 2D Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Perovskites at NUS (Loh Kian Ping Group)
Job Description
Prof. Loh Kian Ping’s team in the NUS Department of Chemistry is hiring a research fellow to synthesise and characterise hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite single crystals and thin films. The group engineers chirality and functionality in hybrid superlattices. Experience with large 2D perovskite crystals, chiral or multiferroic designs, piezoresponse force microscopy, excitonic spectroscopy or single-crystal XRD is an advantage.
