New doctoral network on polaritonics and light-matter hybrid systems – positions available

On 9-10th January, a new Marie Skłodowska-Curie doctoral network has kicked off: SPARKLE is a cutting-edge European research initiative with the aim of exploring polaritonics and light-matter hybrid systems. The project brings together 13 leading experts in theory and experimentation from 10 different institutions across Europe. SPARKLE integrates theoretical and experimental approaches to light-matter interactions, focusing on quantum material modeling, probing light-dressed properties experimentally, advancing spectroscopy techniques, and designing customized light sources. Beyond its scientific mission, the goal of SPARKLE is training 14 early-career researchers through an interdisciplinary curriculum spanning theoretical solid-state physics, ab initio material simulations, photonic engineering, and ultrafast spectroscopy. The participants will also gain entrepreneurial and management skills. In Strasbourg, we will be focusing on developing theory models to study how strong light-matter interactions can affect charge transport in semiconductors embedded in THz cavities. If you are interested in a PhD position, please contact Prof. Guido Pupillo (CESQ) or Dr. David Hagenmuller (IPCMS). To be eligible, the PhD candidate must not have spent the last 12 months in France. Check https://www.sparkle-dn.eu/ or https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/288222 for more details.
