Description of Group/Project : Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices 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 2D materials by CVD and MOCVD, surface functionalisation, advanced characterisation), through to devices (fabrication technology, nanofabrication) and applications (biosensors, neural implants and biomedical technologies, energy storage and conversion).
Main Tasks and responsibilities: The successful candidate will give support to the research team in the following topics: i) CVD and MOCVD growth of 2D materials, in particular graphene and MoS2,, ii) device fabrication based on these materials.
The responsabilities of the candidate will involve the operation of the growth reactors of the team (growth optimization and material production), mainteinance of the reactors, and implementation of upgrades (new gas lines, etc); they can also involve providing support to device fabrication in a cleanroom environment.
As part of the responsabilities, the candidate will contribute to general tasks related to lab organization, operation and equipment maintenance.
The research activity of the candidate will be part of the BrainGraph project (PLEC2022-009232) financiado por MCIU/AEI /10.13039/501100011033 y por la Unión Europea NextGenerationEU/ PRTR.
