CIC nanoGUNE

CIC nanoGUNE: Post-doctoral Researchers on Electronic nanoscale devices with transition-metal dihalides / Non-reciprocal transport in low symmetry heterostructures

Research Field: Physics 
Sub Research Field:  

Job Summary

NanoGUNE is a research center devoted to conducting world-class nanoscience research for a competitive growth of the Basque Country. NanoGUNE is a member of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance (BRTA) and is recognized by the Spanish Research Agency as a María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence.

The Nanodevices group, co-led by Prof. Luis E. Hueso and Prof. Fèlix Casanova, is currently composed of 25 members including senior and junior researchers. The group counts with extensive research facilities for fabrication and characterization of devices and several active research lines spanning from nanofabrication to 2D (optp-)electronics and spin transport. More information can be found at http://nanodevices.nanogune.eu

Job Description



Position 1) Electronic nanoscale devices with transition-metal dihalides
In collaboration with an experimental group specialized in materials growth and surface science at the nearby Materials Physics Center, we will explore the electronic properties of the recently discovered transition-metal dihalides. Devices combining these materials with magnetic and superconductive transition-metal dichalcogenides will as well be under investigation.


Position 2) Non-reciprocal transport in low symmetry heterostructures
In collaboration with theory groups at the nearby Donostia International Physics Center and the Materials Physics Center, we will study non-reciprocal transport in crystalline materials and heterostructures without inversion symmetry.



The research in both cases will include the preparation of samples, their patterning using advanced techniques such as e-beam lithography, and their electrical characterization at low temperatures and high magnetic fields. The results will be discussed in regular with our collaborators in these projects, and we expect the successful candidate to prepare manuscripts for publication in high-impact journals.


The successful candidate will have a PhD in Physics or a similar field and should have experience in some or all of the following topics:
* Preparation and characterization of 2D materials
* Nanofabrication. Lithography
* Electrical transport
* Raman and IR spectroscopy
* Atomic Force microscopy
Although not compulsory, the following points will be considered:
* Previous track record in publications at the highest level.
* Self-motivated and a team player willing to coordinate the research in a particular topic.


We offer an international and competitive environment, state-of-the-art equipment, and the possibility to perform research at the highest level. We promote teamwork in a diverse and inclusive environment and welcome all kinds of applicants regardless of age, disability, gender, nationality, race, religion, or sexual orientation.

The position should start no later than July 1, 2023 and go on for up to 24 months (with a possible extension) in the Nanodevices group.


Candidates should apply by completing the form below and attaching the following documents:
* A complete CV, including the name and contact details of at least three possible reviewers
* A cover letter
