.As a flagship research center in nanoscience and nanotechnology, our mission is to open and explore new frontiers of knowledge at the nanoscale, and bring value to society in the form of new understanding, capabilities and innovation, while inspiring and providing broad training to the next generations of researchers.Our research lines focus on the newly-discovered physical and chemical properties that arise from the behaviour of matter at the nanoscale. ICN2 has been awarded with the Severo Ochoa Center of Excellence distinction for three consecutive periods (2014-2018 and 2018-2022 and 2023-2026). ICN2 comprises 19 Research Groups, 7 Technical Development and Support Units and Facilities, and 2 Research Platforms, covering different areas of nanoscience and nanotechnology.Job Title: Research assistant - Advanced Electronic Materials and DevicesResearch area or group: Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices GroupDescription of Group/Project: The Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices (AEMD) group focuses on the material sciences and technology aspects of novel electronic materials, with a strong emphasis on graphene as well as other 2D materials (MoS2). The group also works towards the development of technological applications based on these materials such as electronics, bioelectronics and biosensing, neural interfaces, etc.The activities cut across different scientific aspects, from the fundamentals (the physics of devices and semiconductors) to materials (growth of graphene and MoS2 materials by CVD and MOCVD, surface functionalisation, advanced characterisation), through to devices (fabrication technology, nanofabrication) and applications (neural implants and biomedical technologies, biosensors, flexible electronics).Main Tasks and responsibilities:The researcher's main role will be in the development of multifunctional devices for electrical and chemical recording. The researcher will receive expert training in graphene electronics technology for neural interfacing, thin-film technology and nanofabrication, growth and characterization techniques and neural data analysis.The research assistant will specialize in multiple facets of neural interfaces development and validation. Specifically, the researcher will focus on (1) design and development of 2D materials based technology, (2) technology integration towards multifunctional probes (3) the validation of the technologies using in vitro and in vivo methodologies.Requirements:Education: Master in Materials Science, Nanotechnology, Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, or equivalent degreesKnowledge:Experience in electronics and electrochemistryExperience with micro/nanofabrication and characterization tools (AFM, TEM, SEM, etc.)Experience with neural interfacesExperience in programming (LabView, Python, C++, Matlab)Fluent English both spoken and writtenPersonal Competences: Teamwork skillsSummary of conditions:Full time work (37
