About the Role
The Multiscale Optical and Scanning Probe of Integrated Semiconductor Interfaces postdoctoral position at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) focuses on advancing characterization techniques for semiconductor materials and devices. This role involves collaboration with multidisciplinary teams to develop and apply cutting-edge optical and scanning probe methods.
Responsibilities
- Design, execute, and analyze experiments using optical spectroscopy and scanning probe microscopy to study semiconductor interfaces.
- Develop novel multiscale characterization approaches to correlate atomic-scale features with macroscopic device performance.
- Collaborate with theorists and computational scientists to interpret experimental data and validate models.
- Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and present at scientific conferences.
- Contribute to proposal development and secure funding for future research initiatives.
Requirements
- Ph.D. in Physics, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field completed within the last 5 years.
- Hands-on experience with optical spectroscopy (e.g., Raman, PL, FTIR) and/or scanning probe microscopy (e.g., AFM, STM).
- Strong background in semiconductor physics, surface science, or nanoscale characterization.
- Proficiency in data analysis using Python, MATLAB, or similar tools.
- Demonstrated ability to work in a collaborative, interdisciplinary environment.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, retirement plans, and paid leave.
- Access to state-of-the-art facilities and resources at ORNL.
- Professional development opportunities, including mentorship and career growth programs.
- Relocation assistance available for eligible candidates.
