University of Rochester: Office of the Provost: Academic Center: LLE-Laboratory for Laser Energ

**Salary Range or Pay Grade**
$100,000-140,000
**Description**

The Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) at the University of Rochester invites applications for a Scientist position in the Ultrafast Plasma Photonics (UPP) Group.

The UPP Group is pioneering new ways to control intense laser light in space and time to create fundamentally new interactions between light and plasma. By integrating theory, computation, and experiment, the group is establishing the scientific foundations for Ultrafast Plasma Photonics—an emerging field that combines ultrafast optics, nonlinear photonics, plasma physics, and structured light to enable new regimes of laser–matter interaction.

Our research seeks to understand and control laser propagation, plasma dynamics, and nonlinear optical processes using advanced concepts such as flying-focus pulses, spatiotemporal beam...
