Job Description

We seek a passionate research scientist to work on the development of novel ultrathin liquid metal oxides for applications in two-dimensional material heterostructure nano-electronics. This project aims to develop scalable techniques to create atomically smooth dielectric interfaces with 2D semiconductors to enable next-generation devices.

• Synthesize and characterize novel liquid metal based ultrathin 2D oxides.
• Design, fabricate, and measure electronic and quantum devices using 2D materials, such as field effect transistors, tunnelling transistors, and gate-defined quantum dots.
• Establish fabrication recipes and material processing capabilities within the research group.
• Automate measurements and analyze data.
• File technology disclosures and technical documentation.
• Prepare manuscripts for publication.

Job Requirements:

• PhD in Material Science, Chemistry, Physics/Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering or related fields.
• Experimental expertise with liquid metal oxides or two-dimensional materials or related processes.
• Experimental expertise with nanofabrication techniques such as lithography, thin film deposition, plasma etching and 2D material processing.
• Experimental expertise with optical and electrical characterization of semiconductor devices.
• Experience with software programming (Labview and/or Python).
• Able to independently plan and execute research.
• Excellent communication and written skills
• Strong collaborative spirit and teamwork.
