瑞典博士后纳米电子学和自旋电子学研究

Uppsala University is an international research university focused on the development of science and education. The University’s most important assets are all the individuals, who with their curiosity and dedication, make Uppsala University one of Sweden’s most exciting workplaces. Uppsala University has 40,000 students, 7,000 employees and a turnover of SEK 6,5 billion.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy is the second largest at Uppsala University with more than 350 employees and 11 different divisions and is situated at Ångström Laboratory in Uppsala.Webpage: http://www.physics.uu.se

Project: The aim of the project is to develop next-generation two-dimensional (2D) spintronic circuits. This will involve developing nanoelectronic and spintronic devices using (2D) crystals such as graphene and 2D semiconductors. Nanofabrication tools such as e-beam lithography will be used to realize such devices in cleanroom. Low-temperature charge and spin transport experiments, high-precision innovative experiments with different stimuli will be carried out.

The research will be conducted at the Nanodevice Laboratory, Division of Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Uppsala University.

Major Responsibilities: The postdoc will perform experimental work in nanofabrication using e-beam lithography and state-of-the-art tools in the cleanroom to develop 2D material devices, and perform measurements in relation to the project objectives. The position might also include the opportunity to supervise master and Ph.D. students to some extent. Also, there will be opportunities for collaborations with groups within the University and industry. 

Qualifications: Highly motivated candidates with demonstrated experience in cleanroom based nanofabrication of devices (preferably graphene, 2D materials). Experimental abilities to perform electrical characterization, low-temperature measurements, willing to learn new techniques and develop newer methods. Excellent command of English is necessary. Expertise in programming for analysis or/and instrumentation and presentation of scientific results should be outlined in the application. 

To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must have a doctoral degree in physics, engineering physics or a relevant field. 

The application should be written in English and include:
1. Cover letter with a short description of your research interests, and why you feel you are a good match for the project (max two pages, ideally one).

2. CV, including a description of relevant skills and experiences, as well as a full publication list.

3. A copy of your Ph.D. degree or date of thesis submission and details.

4. Contact information to a minimum of two (ideally three) individuals, who can provide letters of reference to support your application, with a brief mention of how these individuals are professionally related to you.
