PhD in Quantum Materials Devices for 2D Nanoelectronics

DTU; Denmark; Remote; DKK 420,000 - 540,000; Full time

Job summary

DTU Physics/DTU NanoLab in Denmark seeks a PhD candidate to develop device platforms for engineered quantum materials. You will fabricate devices connecting electronic transport with nanoscale characterization (TEM, AFM, nanoARPES) and collaborate across DTU groups and external partners.

The role combines hands-on device fabrication with advanced measurements, aiming to link superlattice structure with electronic response. A strong experimental background with micro/nanofabrication is essential.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with microfabrication, nanofabrication or experimental device work.
• Comfortable with systematic laboratory work, data analysis and troubleshooting.
• Two-year master’s degree or equivalent required.

Responsibilities

• Design and fabricate chip architectures for quantum superlattice devices, including embedded contacts and electron-transparent regions.
• Develop transfer and stacking processes for graphene, hBN, transition metal dichalcogenides and charge-transfer materials.
• Develop device geometries compatible with low-temperature transport, TEM and surface-sensitive measurements.
• Perform electronic transport measurements and correlate with TEM, SEM, AFM and related characterization.
• Develop open-surface sample platforms for nanoARPES with external collaborators.
• Establish reproducible fabrication and measurement protocols and analyse experimental data.
