The Microwave Electronics Laboratory (MEL) is one of the largest divisions at the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience. At MEL we are more than 30 people performing world-class research on high speed electronic components, circuits, and systems for a wide range of communication, industrial, and remote sensing applications in the frequency range from 1 GHz to 500 GHz and beyond. Our facilities include a uniquely well-equipped laboratory for advanced millimeter wave and sub-terahertz measurements.
A major part our research is targeting the need for higher capacity and improved energy efficiency in future wireless communication systems. We now investigate drastically new wireless solutions, involving in-house designed integrated circuits working at frequencies from 120-330 GHz with bandwidths exceeding 100GHz.
This post-doctoral position aims to explore the possibilities of modern high-speed semiconductor technology for realization of high performance integrated transmitter and receiver circuits for future wireless systems and radar. Of particular interest is to use the latest state-of-the-art silicon integrated circuit technologies stretching the performance limits such as bandwidth, output power and datarate, for applications related to 6G and beyond. A further research challenge that have to be adressed is in the transition from the chip to a waveguide or antenna. The research will be carried out witin the frame of two new EU-projects, CoreNext and 6GTandem, which will offer excellent opportunities for collaboration and networking with leading international research teams in Europe.
Major responsibilities
Your major responsibility will be to perform world-class research on advanced integrated SiGe BiCMOS based transmitter and receiver circuit solutions for future wireless communication and radar applications, including the chip-to-waveguide or chip-to-antenna interface. You will be a key member in a team of PhD students, post-docs and senior researchers, both from industry and academia, working with advanced high datarate communication and radar. Most of the time will be available for your own research, but some part will also include supervision of PhD and MSc thesis students within the research team.
Qualifications
To qualify, you should hold a doctoral degree, generally not older than three years, in microwave/radio frequency electronics. It is also essential that you have experience from high-frequency measurements.
The successful candidate will have an outstanding academic track record and have published first-authored papers in internationally recognized peer-reviewed journals. Important qualities are enthusiasm, to be able to drive and conclude projects independently, take own initiatives and discuss/develop own ideas, be creative and have a problem-solving ability. The project is in collaboration with other researchers and industry and thus excellent cooperation and social abilities are highly important. Good communication skills in English are necessary as English is the primary language in our laboratory. If Swedish is not your native language, Chalmers can offer Swedish courses
Contract terms
This postdoc position is a full-time temporary employment limited to a maximum of three years (2+1).
