Postdoc: Novel devices based on complex oxides for neuromorphic computing

The selected candidate will conduct scientific and research work in the field of neuromorphic computing with novel devices based on complex oxides. She/he will work in the development and high-frequency electrical characterization (at low temperature) of new devices intended to reproduce neuron and synaptic functionality leveraging the metal-insulator transition exhibited by certain oxide materials and the associated magnetic phase transition exhibited by certain oxide materials. She/he will investigate the enhancement of the electrical functionalities of the devices by acting on the magnetic (spin) degree of freedom. The work will include high-frequency electrical characterization at low temperature, device fabrication (lithography, design of lithography masks, materials etching, etc), implementation of the experimental set-up and development of the required programs to perform the electrical measurements.

We are looking for applicants with experience in:

- High-frequency electrical characterization techniques.

- Low temperature measurements.

- Magneto-transport.

- Micro/nano-fabrication techniques (optical and e-beam lithography, ion milling, etc).
