Description:
Our research group is working on metamaterials and related electromagnetic issues at Nagoya Institute of Technology (NIT), which is known as one of the top research universities in Japan. The research group is new but rapidly growing due to success during recent years. We already have a wide range of advanced research facilities including a state-of-the-art VNA (Keysight Technologies, PNA-X series), arbitrary waveform generator (25 GHz bandwidth, 65 GSa/s), 4 oscilloscopes (including URX series of Keysight Technologies), spectrum analyser, 12 workstations (336 cores and more than 3.2 TB RAM in total), 8 NASs (over 300 TB), electromagnetic simulators (ANSYS HFSS, 50 licences) (CST, 5 licences), etc. Our group is rapidly increasing its presence in the research field of metamaterials and metasurfaces and has been publishing papers from top-ranked journals in recent years. For instance, from 2023, our group published 16 journal papers including 2 from Nature Communications. Some of our works are highlighted by globally prestigious journals including Nature.

This will be a great opportunity to join the emerging group and further enhance your career with us. We are looking for several excellent, highly motivated postdoc researchers who can join our research group. At these positions, you will closely work with our collaborators from the University of Nottingham, University of California, San Diego (UCSD), Roma Tre University, Kyoto University, the University of Tokyo, Tokyo Institute of Technology and some Japanese companies for a millimetre-wave metasurface project using nonlinear circuits such as diodes. Importantly, during this position, you are expected to visit our foreign collaborators (the University of Nottingham, University of California, San Diego (UCSD), Roma Tre University, etc) for a long period (from a few months to more than one year).
Duration:
Fixed term until March 2027 (possible continuation to an additional few years)
Saraly:
The salary depends on the performance and career of the candidate but is expected to be between 4,000,000 and 7,000,000 JPY per year.
(Converted to US $27,500-48,000)
Expected start date:
01 Oct 2025 or anytime soon
Closed date:
14 Jul 2025 (however, note that this will be earlier once good candidates are found)
Requirements:
As a minimum requirement, you must have a PhD degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering or other related fields.To be considered, the candidates are expected to have strong experience/knowledge/capability in the following:
- Metamaterials/metasurfaces
- Intelligent Reflecting Surface (IRS)/Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS)
- Nonlinear circuits
- Millimetre wave
- Electromagnetic simulation
We also welcome researchers from different fields:
- AI (machine learning, big database, etc)
- Semiconductors
