We are currently working on integrating carbon nanotube nanomechanical systems into superconducting radio-frequency electronics. Overall objective is the detection and control of nanomechanical motion towards its quantum limit. In this project, we've got a PhD position with project working title "Gigahertz nanomechanics with carbon nanotubes" available immediately.
You will design and fabricate superconducting on-chip structures suitable as both carbon nanotube contact electrodes and gigahertz circuit elements. In addition, you will build up and use - together with your colleagues - two ultra-low temperature measurement setups to conduct cutting-edge measurements.
Good knowledge of electrodynamics and possibly superconductivity are required. Certainly helpful is low temperature physics, some sort of programming experience, as well as basic familiarity with Linux. The starting salary is 1/2 TV-L E13.
