We are seeking a motivated and collaborative individual to join our team as an Research Associate In 2d Materials. This role offers an exciting opportunity to perform and develop nanofabrication of van der Waals heterostructures in the NGI cleanrooms, conduct SPM and transport experiments, and run a range of associated maintenance and training responsibilities, within a dynamic and inclusive environment.
You will be responsible for:
Creating novel 2D heterostructures using the cleanroom facilities of the National Graphene Institute, by performing 2D stack assembly, electron beam lithography, etching and thin film deposition.Servicing and using the new UHV nanofabrication suite for 2D materials, including 2D stacking in vacuum, optical spectroscopy, thin film deposition and plasma etching.Operating and maintaining optical cryogenic closed-loop systems, and performing a range of optical and transport experiments at liquid helium temperatures.
