We are currently recruiting visiting scientists who are interested in topics like solar harvesting, radiative cooling, and IR imaging and sensing. A research background in these areas is helpful, but not necessary – our work will be interdisciplinary, and borrow from different backgrounds.

At present, we are not recruiting postdoctoral researchers or graduate students due to funding constraints. If you still want to join us, please read on.

If you are a prospective postdoc, please see this as an opportunity for growth, and not just a continuation of your PhD research, but expertise in one or more of the following areas are required.

  • Visible-to-IR metasurface and optical design (e.g. one or more of Lumerical, interferometry, cleanroom fabrication, optical characterisations).
  • Heat transfer simulations, urban climate, and building energy modeling (e.g. WRF, ENVI-MET, EnergyPlus).

Great examples of the kind of people I am looking for can be found among the postdocs, graduate students and undergraduates with whom I have worked in the past.

Prospective PhD students who are interested in joining my group are welcome to apply to the Civil & Environmental Engineering department at Princeton. A good background in Physics/Optics/Materials Science/Electrical Engineering/Mechanical Engineering/Chemical Engineering would position you quite well for research in my group.

If you are interested in joining my group and would like to chat, please reach out to me here.
