Research Assistant in the fabrication of oxide devices - DTU Energy

Job description

Are you experienced in the art of clean-room fabrication, and curious about quantum electronics and how novel materials properties manifest in electronic quantum transport phenomena at ultra-low temperatures? Then maybe you are the one we are looking for! Electronic quantum devices are conventionally fabricated from semiconductors such as GiSe or IIIV materials. In these materials, transport can generally be understood from a free-electron-gas picture, and electrical devices can be effectively controlled by electrostatic gating at the nanoscale. Electron systems in oxide heterostructures are emerging as an exciting alternative class of materials where the free-electron-gas picture starts to break down due to significant electron-electron interaction. On the one hand, complex oxides offer high electron mobilities and gate-tunability, and devices can be fabricated using established semiconductor processing techniques. However, on the other hand, oxide 2DEGs are characterized by a delicate interplay of the spin, charge, and orbital degrees of freedom, and their properties are dominated by effects of strong correlations such as ferroelectricity, magnetism, or intrinsic gate-tunable sup...
