PhD Position Spin-Wave Generation in Quantum Materials
$39,615–$50,253 year
On-site · Delft, South Holland, The Netherlands
Job Summary
PhD candidate to join the QuSpin Lab at TU Delft to develop spintronic devices based on magnons in two-dimensional magnetic materials. Project involves exploration of mechanisms for generation and detection of magnons in quantum materials, including electrical, thermal, and RF generation of spin signals. Main tasks include assembly of van der Waals magnets using dry-transfer techniques, fabrication of spintronic nano-devices in state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities, low-temperature transport measurements, data analysis and modelling, close collaboration with other researchers, presenting at national/international conferences, and travel to Japan for consortium meetings and collaborations (up to 42 weeks at the Japanese site) with travel costs covered. The position is embedded in a dynamic laboratory environment within the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft, and TU Delft offers a structured doctoral education program, competitive salary, and relocation support.
Required Qualifications
- Holds (or is close to obtaining) a Master’s degree in physics, applied physics, or nanoscience
- Strong interest in experimental condensed-matter physics, spintronics and quantum nanoscience
- Motivated to work hands-on in the cleanroom and cryogenic laboratories
- Skilled at data analysis, problem-solving, and working in an international research team
- (Possible) Has prior experience with 2D material assembly and nanofabrication
- Advanced level in python programming (e.g. QCoDeS) needed for data acquisition and data analysis
