DPhil in Neuromorphic Computing: Spintronics & 2D Materials

University of Oxford; Oxford; On-site; GBP 19,000 - 23,000; Full time

Benefits offered by this job

Standard stipend

Job summary

The University of Oxford invites applications for a DPhil studentship focused on physics-based neuromorphic computing. The project investigates spin-wave dynamics and 2D spintronic circuits, combining experimental device development with nanofabrication, electrical and magnetic characterization, and modelling.

Supervised by Dr Safeer Chenattukuzhiyil within the MIND Research Group, the fellowship covers tuition fees and provides a standard stipend as part of the Royal Society grant.

Qualifications

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills required.
• Experience or strong interest in experimental condensed matter physics, magnetism, spintronics or neuromorphic computing.
• Undergraduate or master's degree in physics, materials science or related discipline.

Responsibilities

• Plan and perform experimental investigations in neuromorphic computing hardware.
• Conduct nanofabrication, electrical and magnetic characterisation, and computational modelling.
• Collaborate with the MIND Research Group to advance spin-wave and 2D spintronic circuits.
