Position Description

About WPI-SKCM²

As a research center under the Japanese government’s World Premier International Research Center Initiative (WPI), WPI-SKCM² pioneers a new interdisciplinary research paradigm known as "knotted chiral meta matter" (KCM²), which cross-pollinates topology and chirality across disciplines and scales. While our work is rooted in fundamental research, many of WPI-SKCM² efforts aim to advance technologies that address knotty global challenges like growing energy demand and climate change.

About the Recruiting Group

You will be engaged in research projects at WPI-SKCM² working in collaboration with Associate Professor Kenta Kuroda. The main research themes include the development of pump-probe measurement techniques and optical microscope using ultrashort pulse lasers and spin-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy at the Research Institute for Synchrotron Radiation Science (HiSOR). These techniques will be applied to experimentally explore dynamic responses and non-equilibrium phenomena in spintronics materials such as topological substances and novel magnetic materials. Inquiries regarding the research content and direction are welcome.
