Eligibility

Your Pro­file, Skills, and Exper­i­ence

  • PhD in phys­ics, chem­istry, mater­i­als, or clo­sely rela­ted sci­ence obtai­ned less than 3 years ago;
  • a strong back­ground in thin film tech­niques is essen­tial;
  • Pro­fi­ciency with other com­ple­ment­ary labor­at­ory tech­niques as men­tio­ned above is desir­able;
  • Exper­i­ence with rese­arch at large scale facil­it­ies;
