Job Description
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our dynamic research team focused on investigating electron transport phenomena in twisted moiré superlattices, such as twisted multilayer graphene, TMDC, and 2D superconductors. The successful candidate will contribute to cutting-edge research in the field of two-dimensional materials, with a specific emphasis on understanding and manipulating electron transport properties in these unique structures.
Job Responsibilities
Experimental Design and Implementation
- Design and fabricate devices incorporating 2D materials to explore novel electronic properties
Measurements and Data Analyses
- Utilize advanced characterization techniques, such as electron transport measurements, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Raman spectroscopy, etc, to analyze the behaviour of the heterostructures
- Interpret experimental results and provide insights into the underlying physics governing electron transport in the studied materials
Publication and Presentation
- Prepare high-quality research papers for publication in peer-reviewed journals
- Present research findings at conferences and seminars to the scientific community
Collaboration and Teamwork
- Collaborate with fellow researchers, graduate students, and principal investigators to foster a multidisciplinary research environment
- Contribute to the mentorship of graduate students and junior researchers
The tentative starting date is around May-August 2024 depending on the candidate's availability. Any additional relevant questions can be addressed to Prof Alexey Berdyugin ([email protected]).
Qualifications
- PhD in condensed matter physics/nanoscience or any other relevant field
- Excellent understanding of the basics of condensed matter physics and good knowledge of the field of 2D materials
- Excellent writing and verbal communication skills
- Experience with cryogenic equipment and electron transport measurements
- Nanofabrication skills and experience with van der Waals heterostructures assembling are highly welcome
