Key Responsibilities

  • Assist in the design, fabrication, and measurement of optoelectronic quantum devices, such as single-photon detectors, based on low-dimensional van der Waals materials.
  • Establish fabrication recipes, protocols, and material processing capabilities for the project and research group.
  • Lead the measurements and analysis of experimental data, driving engineering and optimization of device performance.
  • Assist in setting up measuring capabilities, including a cryostat for electrical, optical, and magneto-transport measurements, and establishing protocols.
  • Oversee equipment maintenance, capability upgrades, and user training.
  • Lead reporting and communication with all involved stakeholders.
  • Assist in filing technology disclosures and technical documentation.
  • Assist in the preparation and publication of research manuscripts.

Requirements

  • Bachelor or Master in Physics, Applied Physics, Material Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Expertise in the fabrication of van der Waals heterostructures and handling air-sensitive 2D materials.
  • Expertise in the fabrication and measurements of optical devices based on low-dimensional materials.
  • Proficiency in nanofabrication techniques including lithography, thin film deposition, plasma etching, and 2D material processing.
  • Expertise in optical setups and performing experiments in quantum and/or nonlinear optics (visible and near-IR range).
  • Expertise in single-photon experiments.
  • Proficiency in measurements, analysis, and interpretation of optical and electro-optical experimental data.
  • Experience with cryogenic techniques and low-temperature measurements.
  • Proficiency in software programming (LabVIEW and/or Python).
  • Demonstrated ability to independently plan, execute, and report on a research study.
  • High-level communication skills and ability to network effectively with stakeholders.
