Overview

The IMiNa RG is dedicated to the development of new sensing solutions based on silicon and flexible substrates sensors and their integration into functional prototypes.

We are looking for a self-motivated Junior Research Fellow to join our team in the optimisation of thin-film pyroelectric materials deposition and their application in compact chip-scale devices, in the scope of the EAGER project.

SR&TD project specifications:

(a) Name of the project: EAGER: pyroElectricAlly GEneRated electrons for chips-scale devices

(b) Reference number: Ref. 2022.15666.UTA

(c) Description: This project aims to develop pyroelectrically generated electron sources for chip-scale applications. The exploration of this novel miniature chip-scale device has a wide range of applications in semiconductor industries (vacuum systems) and residual gas sensing applications.

(d) Scientific Area: Nanomaterials for new markets, thin-films

Description of the functions and key primary responsibilities:

Deposition of seed layers and pyroelectric thin-films, by sputtering;

Characterisation of different thin-films through XRD and SEM;

Laboratorial characterisation of current and electric field measurements as a function of temperature;

Experimental validation of the pyroelectric film as a chip scale electron source.

Specific Eligibility Conditions:

MSc degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics Engineering, Material Science or other related field;

Background knowledge on deposition techniques;

Knowledge on material properties;

Report writing.

Supervision: The work plan will be developed at the INL under the scientific guidance of Dr. Rui Pinto. The successful candidate will be integrated into the IMiNa - Integrated Micro and Nanotechnologies.

General Eligibility conditions, required qualifications and expertise:

Hold a MSc Degree within the field of the selected vacancy;

Be a Portuguese citizen, a European Union citizen, a non-European Union Citizen, or a stateless person with a scientific and professional curriculum that demonstrates an appropriate profile for the activity to be performed;

Fluency in English is required.

How to Apply:

The application must be in English and include the following mandatory documents :

Cover letter;

Curriculum Vitae;

Academic and/or Professional diplomas;

At least one recommendation letter;

Recognition of academic degrees (only academic degrees awarded by non-Portuguese higher education institutions).

How the Selection Process works:

A. Applications eligibility check: This stage will be carried out on the basis of the mandatory requirements, education, experience and technical skills defined for the job, as well as the validation of the mandatory documents.

B. CV Assessment: The Selection Committee will evaluate the eligible applications based on their CV and other submitted documents and the suitability for the position.

C. Interview(s): The interview(s) may be done in different formats: video recording, online or onsite.

D. Assessment: The Selection Committee will draw up the minutes of the R&S process in which candidates will be ranked according to their evaluation scores.

E. Nomination: The selected candidate will be nominated and formally offered the position, including the disclosure of the contractual conditions.

Our Benefits:

Competitive salary;

Private health insurance;

30 working days of annual leave.
