One Lomb Memorial Drive, Rochester, NY 14623-5603
Lab Postdoctoral Fellowship
Applications
are invited for a Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Rochester Imaging Detector
Laboratory (RIDL), within the Center for Imaging Science at the Rochester
Institute of Technology. The RIDL develops and advances new innovative
detector technologies for astronomy and other fields. These detectors employ
novel circuit designs that can deliver highly desired characteristics, i.e.
sub-electron read noise.
The RIDL is a
development lab for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) and Supernovae
Acceleration Probe (SNAP); both are leading projects for exploring dark matter
and dark energy in the Universe and are two of the most important astronomical
missions planned for the coming decade.
The RIDL
Postdoc will participate in the development and testing of novel CMOS detector
technologies for a broad range of applications. The initial appointment will
be for two years with possible renewal for a third year. Applicants must have
a PhD in electrical engineering or related field.
Inquiries
about this position may be directed to Donald F. Figer (figer@cis.rit.edu).
Applications can be made at mycareer.rit.edu (place in Keyword field IRC4415
for detailed job listing). Applications should include a cover letter, resume,
and names of three references.
