PhD position – Spin transfer torque magnetic field sensing

Topic
PhD scholarship to work on a novel sensing approach exploring spin transfer torque (STT) for magnetic field sensing in perpendicular anisotropy magnetic tunnel junctions. The project aims at high-density low power consumption sensors, departing from and improving on conventional magnetoresistive sensors.
Candidate with mandatory University Master degree with following profile:

  • Physics, Engineering, Material Science or related fields
  • Background in solid-state physics or magnetism
  • Strong interest in experimental physics and cleanroom nanofabrication
  • Skills in computational methods and simulations, research dissemination at conferences, teamwork
  • The candidate will benefit from existing state-of-the-art tools and facilities for material development, electrical and magnetic characterization, and device simulation. Recognized experience in any of the above fields or related to spintronics is a plus.
