Postdoc Opening at EPFL - please share! I am hiring a post-doctoral fellow here in the Laboratory for Energy Materials at EPFL to work on the next generation of quantum light sources, with an earliest start date of January 2026 for up to 4 years. #quantum #light #energymaterials #academia #jobalert

Love building microscopes? Looking for a #postdoc? Come work w/ me, Ed Barnard, Jim Schuck, Bruce Cohen & others @berkeleylab.lbl.gov developing a #photonAvalanching microscope for bio & environmental sensing! Description below: #jobs #nonlinear #optics #photonics drive.google.com/file/d/1Qcof...

We are delighted to showcase this cross-journal collection on light–(nano)matter interactions! 🔦 Discover thought-provoking Opinion pieces and tutorial-style Focus articles from plenary speakers at the 2024 LnMI summer school, alongside outstanding primary research! 🔗 pubs.rsc.org/en/journals/...

This is incredible engineering.... This striking blue made pigment history. Could red be next? cen.acs.org/materials/st...

Atmospheric chemist @alisonbain.bsky.social works as an assistant professor at @oregonstate.edu, where she measures aerosol particles to understand climate change. Read more: cen.acs.org/environment/... #CENT12 #chemsky 🧪

WANDA has been instrumental to my postdoc projects while working at the @molecularfoundry.lbl.gov. I’m looking forward to my students taking advantage of WANDA’s capabilities in the future.

Check out our perspective article in @materialshorizons.rsc.org where we bust common myths about Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles! doi.org/10.1039/D4MH... Learn why photon avalanches are not avalanches of photons and many other fun facts about ANPs. #chemsky 🧪 See 🧵 below for more myths and art.

RESEARCH NEWS: Our scientists have developed photon-avalanching nanoparticles that exhibit a phenomenon called “intrinsic optical bistability,” which could enable optical memory for #OpticalComputing. @molecularfoundry.lbl.gov 🧪 #TechInnovation

#ActuallyProud to share our latest work in @naturephotonics.bsky.social demonstrating intrinsic optical stability in photon avalanching nanoparticles! doi.org/10.1038/s415... Read on to learn how these nanoparticles are like Gwyneth Paltrow 👱‍♀️, and how that’s useful for optical computing.

We started 2025 in full force w/ a new @nature.com pub on 1/1/25 using photon avalanching nanoparticles to sense pN-nN forces with infrared light! Work co-led w/ Bruce Cohen @molecularfoundry.bsky.social & Jim Schuck @columbiauniversity.bsky.social 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our work on the optical bistability of avalanching nanoparticles is now out! These tiny crystals are among the most nonlinear nanomaterials reported and exhibit luminescence hysteresis, which is valuable in advancing optical computing and memory. @molecularfoundry.bsky.social #MSCA rdcu.be/d5pT7

Photon avalanching nanoparticles as extraordinary pressure sensors! High sensitivity, high dynamic range, multiple operation modes, all remote and in the near infrared range. Honored to be part of the team that made it happen. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
