LINKÖPING UNIVERSITY
Hereby advertises a position as
PhD student in Applied Physics
(ESR3: Novel microfabrication methods for IEAP microactuators)
formally based at Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology (IFM)
General
Applications are invited for a PhD position ("Early Stage Researchers" ESR) to be funded bythe Marie-Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network "MICACT - Microactuators" within the Horizon 2020 Programme of the European Commission. MICACT is a consortium of high profile universities, research institutions and companies located in France, Estonia, Germany, United Kingdom, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherland, Spain, Italy, China, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Monaco. The training network offers also the participation in several training schools on electroactive polymers, a personal career development plan and secondments to international partners.
Duties
As a PhD student you will primarily devote yourself to your research. As a PhD student you are limited devoted to work with education and administration up to 20 percent of full time.
ESR3 will progress the IEAP microfabrication beyond the-state-of-the-art by developing new patterning and microfabrication methods for IEAPs such as polypyrrole and gels. The fellow will start by microfabricating IEAP microactuators in a variety of configurations such as bulk, bilayer and trilayer transducers at LiU using state-of-the-art clean room microfabrication facilities. The fellow will complement this knowledge by developing 3-D printing and laser ablation patterning during a secondment at Universtity of Wollongong, Australia, and learning dry etching methods at CNRS (Université de Villeneuve d'Ascq Cité Scientifique, France). The fellow will develop novel patterning methods using photolithography and soft lithography. This will be combined with the 3-D printing in order to fabricate complex IEAP microactuator structures and interfaces.
Qualifications
Qualified to PhD studentships are only those who are or have been admitted to graduate studies.
M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, (Applied) Physics, (Polymer) Chemistry, Material Science/Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field. Strong experimental skills in electrical and mechanical engineering, materials science, polymer science, or related field. Experience in the fields of soft actuators and/or clean room processes will be appreciated.
The candidate should have a strong interest in interdisciplinary research and enjoy teamwork with colleagues in a multicultural setting. He/she should adept at thinking at a system level, interested in applications and enjoy building and testing working devices. The candidate should be highly motivated, taking initiative, communicative, quality minded, flexible, and eager to learn. He/she should be eager to frequent travel to secondment hosts and workshops.
The candidate must be fluent in English. Knowledge of Swedish is a plus.
Researchers can be of any nationality. At the time of recruitment researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Sweden for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the application date. Short stays such as holidays and/or compulsory national service are not taken into account.
Appointment time
The appointment will be until further notice for a maximum of one year at a time. A doctoral student may not be employed during a period not exceeding eight years. The total time of appointment must not exceed the equivalent of four years' full time research training.
Starting date
By agreement but latest June 1, 2015
Salary
The salary for PhD students is based on the department's salary scale.
