Project description

We are searching for two highly motivated and skilled postdocs to join our team and contribute to our exciting research in terahertz electronics. In this project, you will be at the forefront of investigating cutting-edge semiconductor devices and circuits to enable far-infrared electronics. The goal is to investigate and create a new framework for terahertz semiconductor electronics for space-borne Earth climate observations by combining high-performance compound semiconductors with advanced silicon integration methods. With this goal in mind, one postdoc will explore ultra-low-noise devices and other advanced terahertz receiver architectures. These two projects are supported by the European Research Council (ERC) and the Swedish National Space Agency.

Information about the division and the department

At the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience, you will be part of a unique and collaborative research environment in micro- and nanotechnology, housing over 250 researchers and PhD students. The main research activities at the Terahertz and Millimetre Wave division are on technologies with applications that span from basic science to future sensors and communication systems. We are at the forefront of innovation in terahertz electronics, working on projects that push the boundaries of what is possible, aiming for the next generation of wireless systems, remote sensing, and space terahertz instrumentation. Moreover, you will be part of an environment including world-class research groups and industrial collaborators and have access to excellent characterisation and fabrication infrastructures. 

Major responsibilities

Your research will be directed toward advancing semiconductor devices and circuits for terahertz frequency applications (2– 5 THz). It will be pursued at the Terahertz and Millimetre Wave Laboratory. You will fabricate demonstrators in our state-of-the-art Nanofabrication facility and perform experiments at the terahertz characterisation facility (Kollberg Laboratory).

Qualifications

To qualify for this position, you must have a PhD in applied physics or electrical engineering with a curriculum that provides a solid foundation in microwave engineering and semiconductor technology.

The following qualifications are mandatory requirements for the respective postdoc position:

  • Experience in nanolithography and in fabricating advanced semiconductor devices;
  • Experience in the microwave design of waveguide or quasi-optical circuits (antenna integration).

It is meritious to be familiar with the characterisation of heterodyne receiver instrumentation.

You should have good communication skills, the ability to work in an interdisciplinary group, good analytical and experimental skills, and an excellent ability to work independently toward the goals expressed in the project plans. Further, as the position involves collaboration between academic research groups and the industry, you must enjoy working in different environments and proactively participate in new research initiatives.

Contract terms

This postdoc position is a full-time temporary employment for 2-3 years.
