Sweden: PhD position in Engineering Science with specialisation in Electronics, Uppsala University

Overview

Uat the Ångström Laboratory, Department of Engineering Sciences, Division of Solid State Electronics. Starting date: as soon as possible.

Silicon technology represents a fine collection of high-precision tools and methodologies for micro/nanofabrication in large scale. It has grown together with, as well as facilitated, the rapid development of modern electronics that has in turn created the information society and reshaped our way of living. A clear and irreversible trend with micro/nanoelectronics is its even more aggressive invasion into and service of all thinkable application areas from manufacturing, logistics, service, healthcare, energy, security to diverse household needs.

Research topic: The research at the Division of Solid-State Electronics (FTE, Fasta tillståndets elektronik) has closely followed this development trend and we have been among the leaders worldwide in several fronts focusing on addressing the evolving needs in education and research in modern electronics. One of the core research areas at FTE concerns is related to Silicon Technology as well as its multiple applications including nanoelectronics, flexible electronics and nano-scale biosensors. We are now expanding our research portfolio by employing Silicon Technology for Smart Energy including energy conversion (such as the 3rd generation solar cells) and energy storage (such as high-efficiency super capacitors).


Eligible Candidates

The successful candidate should have a master of science in engineering physics / material science or equivalent. Good skills in oral and written English are required.
