Basel, Schweiz The Biozentrum, University of Basel Vollzeit

Your position



The successful candidate will become an essential member of our fast-growing research team exploring collective many-body phenomena in magneto-opto-electronic experiments that will be conducted under extreme conditions: at temperatures down to ~10 mK and magnetic fields up to ~10 T. The candidate will be involved in all aspects of research, from engineering and fabricating electrically-tunable vdW devices, through preparing experimental setups and performing optical measurements, to implementing custom-based software for automated data acquisition and analysis. They will have access to state-of-the-art apparatus, including dry low-temperature magneto-optical cryostats, dilution refrigerator units with fiber or free-space optical access, pulsed laser systems, and clean-room device fabrication facilities. They will also benefit from excellent mechanical/electronic workshop support.

Your profile

Key requirements:
 

PhD degree (held or near completion) in Physics, Nanoscience, Electrical/Optical Engineering, or related fields Strong background in condensed matter physics and optics Experience in low-temperature optical spectroscopy Familiarity with computer-based data acquisition and processing (Python/C++/Labview) Strong track record of high-impact research papers and conference presentations in condensed matter physics, ideally in the field of two-dimensional materials Team player with excellent communication skills and collaborative working style Strong self-motivation and commitment to performing research in a competitive field, high degree of independence, and creative approach for solving problems Excellent scientific presentation skills Very good level of English (both written and spoken)  
In addition, it is advantageous for the candidates to have experience in at least some of the following areas:
handling dilution refrigerator systems and dry/wet helium cryostats with superconducting magnets exfoliation and stacking of two-dimensional materials design, fabrication, and handling of charge-tunable vdW heterostructures clean-room processing (reactive ion etching, optical/electron beam lithography, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, metal evaporation, wire bonding) performing computer-based simulations and modelling in COMSOL using pulsed laser systems and ultra-fast optical spectroscopy (pump-probe experiments, single photon correlations, time-resolved measurements etc.) fiber optics electronic transport experiments physics of strongly correlated many-body systems mentoring junior researchers
