Doctoral Position in functional oxide thin films
100%, Zurich, fixed-term print Drucken
The newly established Solid-State Materials Chemistry Group at the Laboratory of Inorganic Chemistry, Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences (D-CHAB), ETH Zurich, is seeking a highly motivated Doctoral Position.
- Doctoral Position in functional oxide thin films
- 100%, Zurich, fixed-term print Drucken
Processus de candidature
- Our long-term goal is to develop materials with potential for technology transfer to semiconductor and photonic industries, as well as energy conversion and storage applications. Project background
- Controlling and coupling electric, magnetic, and structural properties within a single material could open new routes towards low-power electronics.
- Transition-metal perovskite oxides offer a versatile platform for this purpose: their A- and B-cation chemistry can be varied to tune the interplay between lattice, orbital, spin, and charge degrees of freedom.
- In this experimental Doctoral project, you will investigate layered perovskite-based oxides, in which spacer layers interrupt the three-dimensional perovskite network.
- This lowers the crystal symmetry, introduces strong anisotropy, and promotes structural distortions that couple magnetic and ferroelectric order.
- In epitaxial thin films, strain and interfaces offer additional ways to engineer these properties. Job description
- Growing epitaxial thin films and heterostructures by pulsed-laser deposition and magnetron sputtering and using epitaxial strain and interfacial effects to stabilize metastable phases with desired structural, electronic, and magnetic functionality.
- Thin-film structural and functional characterization using X-ray diffraction, scanning-probe microscopy, magnetometry, synchrotron-based experiments (e.g., at Paul Scherrer Institute)
