Quantum Nano-Optoelectronics Group: Post-doctoral Researcher in Moiré Optoelectronics and Quantum Geometry

Institute of Photonic Sciences, Spain

Updated: 15 days ago
Deadline: ;

ICFO is offering a postdoctoral position to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientist who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.

The successful candidate will be joining Quantum Nano-Optoelectronics Group led by Prof. Frank Koppens.

The postdoctoral researcher will investigate the optoelectronic properties of moiré quantum materials under high current-bias conditions, with a focus on quantum geometry and its role in phototransport and photocurrent generation. The work aims to establish connections between quantum geometric quantities (Berry curvature, quantum metric) and experimentally observable high-bias transport and optical signatures in moiré systems, including the study of electronic criticalities.

Main tasks and responsibilities include:

  • Device design and nanofabrication of van der Waals heterostructures based on twisted 2D materials (dry transfer, cleanroom lithography, encapsulation)
  • Cryogenic optoelectronic and magneto-transport measurements, including photocurrent spectroscopy and phototransport characterization in high current-bias regimes
  • Data analysis and interpretation of experimental results in the context of quantum geometry and moiré physics
  • Supervision and mentoring of PhD students and master/bachelor students within the group
  • Dissemination of results through publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentation at international conferences
  • Reporting on project progress to funding agencies and participation in project meetings and deliverables

PID2022-141081NB-I00 project funded by the MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033/ FEDER, UE
