In the frame of our H2020 project GREAT we have one open position for a postdoc or term contract for 18 months to characterize the spin transfer torque induced magnetic switching as well as rf excitations of perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction devices (pMTJs) with the aim to demonstrate the dual functionality for memory and microwave applications. The candidate will perform a variety of static and dynamic measurements (VSM, FMR, PPMS, VEECO, static and dynamic magneto-resistance using current pulses and high frequency equipments) and will also perform simulations to analyse results. A sound background in physics and/or materials and nanosciences is requested with knowledge of spintronics concepts.
Interested candidates should send a CV and letter of motivation to Ricardo Sousa and to Ursula Ebels.
