Postdoctoral position in semiconductor physics and technology

The research team Synthesis and Characterization of Nanomaterials, Institute of Photonics and Electronics of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic, is seeking a highly qualified candidate to carry out cutting-edge research in semiconductor physics and technology.

Description of the position:

 The research team Synthesis and Characterization of Nanomaterials investigates novel semiconductor nanomaterials and nanostructures with the emphasis on their growth mechanisms and advanced electrical and optical characterization. Your task will be to model charge transport in nanoscale contacts to semiconductor nanostructures, to perform their electrical and optical measurements, to collaborate with other team members on the development of their growth methods, and to introduce new ideas and open new research directions. The specific research project focuses on the electrical characterization and modeling of charge transport in one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures. You are expected to present the research results at international conferences and in highly ranked scientific journals.

Qualifications:

 We are seeking highly motivated willing to learn young scientists with a strong background in semiconductor physics and technology. The applicant is expected to hold or to be about to receive a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering, applied physics, materials science, or related area.

Contact:

 For additional information about the position please contact Jan Grym, team leader of the research team Synthesis and Characterization of Nanomaterials.

To apply:

 Please send a motivation letter on why you want to apply for the position (maximum one page), a resume/CV, a list of publications, and two letters of recommendation to Mrs. Plasilova, plasilova@ufe.cz no later than on August 22, 2016.
