Research
Associate in Graphene/Nanotube-based Spectroscopy
A position exists for a research associate to work on graphene and
nanotube-based spectroscopy. The project is funded by the European
Research Council. The aim is to develop a new class of optoelectronic
devices embedding the optical and electronic functionalities of
graphene and carbon nanotubes. The main task will be to gain full
understanding of the kinetic and relaxation properties of charge
carriers and lattice modes in graphene, graphene layers and nanotubes,
by investigating electron-electron and electron-phonon kinetics in
graphene and nanotubes, the relaxation of hot carriers excited
optically or injected by tunnelling and the kinetics of non-equilibrium
phonons and heat exchange between graphene/nanotubes and
substrate/contacts. This is an ambitious frontier research program,
with a strong interdisciplinary nature, across physics, materials
science, nanotechnology and electrical engineering. It will require the
preparation, characterization, optimization of graphene and nanotube
devices. In particular their characterization by Raman and pump-probe
spectroscopy. The successful candidate will have a PhD in Physics,
Material Science or Electrical Engineering. Preference will be given to
candidates with proven expertise in time-resolved Raman spectroscopy,
pump-probe spectroscopy.
Further details may be obtained from Prof. A. C. Ferrari. To apply
