Hereby advertises a position as
Postdoctor in Materials Science (within the Competence Centre FunMat-II)
formally based at Nanostructured Materials at the Department of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (IFM)
Duties
FunMat-II is a Competence Centre funded by VINNOVA (the Swedish Agency for Innovation Systems) in materials science and surface engineering at Linköping University with partners at Uppsala University, the research institute RISE, and numerous Swedish and international industry partners. At Linköping University, the Divisions of Nanostructured Materials, Thin Film Physics, and Theory and Modeling participate.
As a member of Nanostructured Materials, you will conduct application inspired fundamental research on materials synthesis and materials behavior. The work is primarily experimental. This position is part of the competence center FunMat-II, which means that you will be part of a larger research team that is doing collaborative research. The team members are from Linköping university and industrial companies that are partners of the center. You will be part of one or several research projects, which are headed by a senior researcher and a steering group.
The position comprises growth of thin films by arc deposition and magnetron sputtering. Primary, alloys of transition metal nitrides are considered but metallic alloys are also of interest. You will be involved in several research collaborative projects aiming to understand growth mechanisms while searching for new and improved materials. Your work will involve growth and characterization of these films. Characterization includes extensive XRD and (S)TEM. You may also be involved in development of new experimental set-ups.
A Postdoc will essentially carry out research. The position may also involve teaching, but during no more than a fifth of work time.
Qualifications
The position requires a doctorate or an equivalent degree from a foreign university. The doctorate shall have been obtained no longer than three years before the expiration date of the application.
The candidate for the position should have extensive experience in reactive thin film growth by arc deposition and/or magnetron sputtering and materials characterization by XRD and TEM. Expertise in laser based characterization methods (FTIR or BLS) and/or surface characterization techniques (XPS, ERDA or AFM) are considered as extra merits.
International applicants must attach a statement on oral and written English skill; IELTS (Academic) 6.5 overall (no subscore below 5.5) or TOEFL (iBT) 90 (written, minimum 20).
Appointment time
Two years.
Starting date
By agreement/as soon as possible.
Salary
