Description du poste

One-year Postdoc Position in Electronics

RESEARCHER PROFILE:Postdoc / R2: PhD holders
RESEARCH FIELD(S)1:Electronics

JOB /OFFER DESCRIPTION:

As part of our ongoing research activities in the national research plan FerroFutures, our goal is to develop and demonstrate a hardware platform based on low-cost technologies for energy-efficient computing tailored to the specific needs of Artificial Intelligence.

The Internet of Things (IoT), a powerful driver toward a society increasingly reliant on information exchange, demands the deployment of edge Artificial Intelligence (Edge AI). Indeed, the energy consumption of conventional AI approaches is incompatible with the constraints of embedded applications.

Edge AI must meet stringent requirements in terms of energy consumption, latency, real-time processing, exponentially growing data volumes, and privacy. To meet these demands, new architectures capable of storing and processing data locally must be explored, particularly in light of emerging technologies.

Among these, ferroelectric technology stands out for its excellent energy efficiency and low-cost access to non-volatile functionality, making it highly competitive among emerging memory technologies.

In this scope, we are seeking a motivated postdoctoral researcher to work on the characterization and modelling of devices such as ferroelectric capacitors (FeCAPs) and ferroelectric memory transistors (FeMFETs), along with other promising memory technologies.

The postdoctoral researcher will be based at the IM2NP laboratory (Aix-Marseille University), and, as part of the collaboration with the IMS laboratory (University of Bordeaux), will occasionally carry out research missions with our partner team.

During this position, the main tasks will be:

• Conduct advanced on-wafer electrical characterization of emerging memory technologies such as FeCAPs and FeMFET (including DC, C-V, P-V, temperature-dependent measurements, as well as characterization of leakage, read-awake behavior, fatigue, endurance and footprint) for parameter extraction.
• Develop scalable compact models suitable for integration into Process Design Kits (PDKs).

TYPE OF CONTRACT:TEMPORARY / JOB STATUS:FULL TIME / HOURS PER WEEK:35
APPLICATION DEADLINE:31/08/2025
ENVISAGED STARTING DATE:01/09/2025
ENVISAGED DURATION: 12 months
JOB FUNDED THROUGH AN EU RESEARCH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME:FERROFUTURES

WHAT WE OFFER:

• Mentorship and individual supervision
• Participation in cutting-edge nanoelectronics research within a national and interdisciplinary consortium
• Access to state-of-the-art characterization and simulation tools
• Salary based on French public research standards

QUALIFICATIONS, REQUIRED RESEARCH FIELDS, REQUIRED EDUCATION LEVEL, PROFESSIONAL SKILLS, OTHER RESEARCH REQUIREMENTS

• PhD in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field
• Strong background in device physics and modelling
• Good technical understanding and proficiency in professional scientific communication in English
• Perseverance in experimental characterization
• Ability to work independently and collaborate across labs

Preferred skills:

• Experience with on-wafer measurements
• Familiarity with SPICE and/or TCAD modelling tools

Soft skills:Autonomy, Teamwork, Analytical and Critical Thinking.

Candidates should be fluent in English or French. Fluency in both is an asset but not mandatory.
