We are looking for a highly motivated doctoral student to work on multidisciplinary experiments at the boundary of optics/plasmonics and magnetism. The aim of the project is to induce ultrafast magnetic switching in tailored magneto-plasmonic metamaterials using femtosecond laser pulses, which is relevant for next-generation magnetic memory devices. As a doctoral student you will design and fabricate the magneto-plasmonic metamaterials using finite-difference time-domain simulations, state-of-the-art material deposition techniques, and advanced photo- and electron-beam lithography processing. Moreover, you will learn how to characterize the magnetic, plasmonic, and magneto-optical properties of the samples using a wide range of experimental techniques. The doctoral project is conducted in the Nanomagnetism and Spintronics group at the Department of Applied Physics of Aalto University. We closely collaborate with the University of Lorraine in France on all-optical magnetic switching. As a doctoral student you will be able to visit this institute for at least three months.??

For more information, please contact Prof. Sebastiaan van Dijken, sebastiaan.van.dijken@aalto.fi?

POSITION 2:

In this position, you will have the opportunity to conduct experimental research in both materials and device physics. The main research work will be carried out in the field of organic transistors and light-emitting devices, with a particular interest in the general understanding of the device properties as well as the overall development and improvement of the performances. In particular, organic light-emitting devices (transistors) are a rather yet largely unexplored device platform, holding tremendous potentials both in terms of fundamental studies as well as technological applications. Large efforts are expected to be devoted to study physical phenomena such as charge/field-effect transport and light emission/sensing, with a particular interest in new semiconductor and luminescent materials and material’s interface. The work is expected to result in high-impact scientific publications and communications at national/international conferences. Doctoral training will include study of materials properties, device fabrication and electro-optical characterization, using facilities available in the Organic Electronics Lab and Aalto University facility (Micronova). More information can be found at https://organicelectronics.aalto.fi/.
