*Requisition Title*: *Assistant Professor - Experimental Quantum Optics /
AMO Physics* *-* *1401818*

*Job Field*: Tenure Stream

*Faculty / Division:* Faculty of Arts and Science

*Department*: Physics

*Campus*: St. George (downtown Toronto)

*Job Posting*: Sep 9, 2014

*Job Closing*: Dec 12, 2014 Open Until Filled

*Description*

:

The Department of Physics at the University of Toronto invites applications
for a tenure-stream appointment in the area of Experimental Atomic,
Molecular, and Optical (AMO) Physics and/or Experimental Quantum Optics.
The appointment will be at the rank of Assistant Professor and commence on
July 1, 2015.



We seek a candidate with the ability to build a strong independent
experimental research program in a cutting-edge area of quantum optics
broadly defined, which could for instance range from semiconductor quantum
optics to degenerate atomic gases to quantum information (on any of a
variety of platforms).  The ideal candidate will have some overlap in
interests and techniques with the existing groups, but complement the
present efforts at the University of Toronto, which include (among other
areas) photonic bandgaps, trapped ion physics, spin dynamics and quantum
simulation in degenerate Fermi gases, laser-induced plasmas, entangled
photons and quantum cryptography, ultrafast spectroscopy, quantum control,
and quantum foundations.  The successful candidate will join a cluster of
eight faculty members in quantum optics, within a department that covers
all areas of physics (including biophysics and atmospheric physics groups
with a heavy use of modern optical techniques). The university-wide
presence in nonlinear and quantum optics spans several faculties and
departments and is among the most substantial in North America.  Applicants
must have earned a Ph.D. in physics or a related field by July 1, 2015 or
shortly thereafter, with a demonstrated record of excellence in teaching
and research.  Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and
experience.



All qualified candidates are invited to apply by clicking on the link
below.  Applications should include a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, a
statement outlining current research interests, a five-year research plan,
a statement of teaching philosophy and a description of relevant teaching
experience.  A copy of the publication you consider most significant and/or
relevant to the application may optionally be included.   All application
materials should be submitted online.  Submission guidelines can be found
at: http://uoft.me/how-to-apply.



In addition, applicants should ask at least three referees to send letters
directly to the Department Chair, Stephen Julian, via email to
chair at physics.utoronto.ca, by the closing date, December 12, 2014. If you
have questions about this position, please contact Mr. Christopher McGugan
at chairsec at physics.utoronto.ca.

athttp://physics.utoronto.ca.

The University of Toronto is strongly committed to diversity within its
community and especially welcomes applications from visible minority group
members, women, Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, members of
sexual minority groups, and others who may contribute to the further
diversification of ideas.



All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority.
