Postdoc Offer on graphene-based devices – CLOSED

Written by JAGS on April 12, 2019. Posted in Open Positions.

We are looking now for a postdoctoral fellow to join in our team to work on hybrid graphene-based devices. Deadline for application: applications will be considered as they are received until June 2019.

We are looking to recruit a postdoctoral fellow to create hybrid graphene-based three-terminal nanodevices. The postdoctoral fellow will oversee the design, fabrication and characterization of graphene-based electrodes separated by a nano-gap (<2 nm), as well as the analysis and treatment of the experimental data. Electronic transport measurements of three-terminal nanodevices will be performed in a probe station under various environmental conditions to assess their efficiency and robustness as electronic sensors.

The devices will be prepared using molecular-based materials as active components, an area in which the group has extensive experience. A key aspect of the project is the functionalization of graphene electrodes via e.g. covalent and supramolecular attachment. We thus seek a candidate with excellent nanofabrication skills, who ideally has a background in graphene nanotechnologies and who can drive the research at the interface between chemistry and physics.

The postdoctoral fellow will join a lab that actively collaborates with other international groups, and hence research stays at other institutions will be part of the project.

This position offers a unique opportunity to conduct innovative, interdisciplinary research and the postdoctoral fellow is expected to publish her/his results in leading journals. The postdoctoral position is for up to 3 years.

Requirements

For this position, we are looking for an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher with a strong background in experimental physics and nanofabrication. Applicants should have the following qualifications:

PhD in experimental physics or similar.
Expertise in electronic transport measurements.
Knowledge of graphene nanodevice fabrication
Data analysis and programming skills
Good communication and organizational skills
Strong publication record
Ability to work independently as well as with interdisciplinary teams
Fluent in English

Applicants are invited to submit a cover letter and CV, including the contact information (name, institution, phone number, and e-mail address) of 3 referees.

The project will start in September 2019 but we encourage candidates to apply early; applications will be considered as they are received.
