Postdoctoral Researcher – Exploratory Development of Innovative Beyond State-of-the-Art Spintronic Devices

We are looking for a qualified Postdoctoral Researcher to join the team focused on the microfabrication of MTJ devices with the goal of developing novel TMR sensor solutions for biomedical applications. This activity is carried out within a private research contract and requires the development of innovative solutions beyond the current-state-of-the-art and targeting specific applications. The job duties will be the following: • Optimise stacks and processes towards the production of new sensing devices beyond current state-of-the-art; • Micro-fabricate and nano-fabricate TMR sensor wafers that can be used to qualify solutions and products; • Characterise electrically the sensors produced; • Develop and automatize new characterisation setups that might be required to explore the devices produced; • Engage with a team made of researchers and engineers working at INL to integrate such devices at system level, either by combining them with discrete electronic circuits or by homogeneously/heterogeneously integrate the devices developed with CMOS and/or other technologies; • Collect and analyse data to characterise single sensors and the full solution at system level; • Elaborate documentation, reports and presentations; • Participate in the writing of scientific publications or patent submissions concerning the achievements of the project.
