Opportunities
November 2022: Several postdoctoral researcher positions open!
Candidates with research experiences and expertise in the following fields are invited to apply:
-- 2D materials/heterostructures electronic transport measurements
-- SNOM techniques
--cleanroom microfabrication, including e-beam lithography, RIE, e-beam evaporation and other characterization facilities.
--2D chemistry
To apply, please send CV (reflect your expertise and skills) to artem.mishchenko@gmail.com
October 2022: Several fully funded PhD positions are now available at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, the University of Manchester, to explore transport phenomena in two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures.
This includes either ionic transport through atomic-scale capillaries or quantum transport through van der Waals heterostructures, depending on the skills of the candidates. The projects are expected to lead to high-impact scientific publications, technological developments, and strong career development of the PhD students.
Application notes for PhD candidates:
We provide full fundings (tuition fee waive plus stipend) for outstanding candidates who have relevant background and proven abilities in research and English, and problem solving abilities -- Make sure to reflect these in your CV.
