Research Associate - Manufacturing nano GaN (CT2927)

Type: Education & Research | Department: Electronic & Electrical Engineering | Location: Bath | Closing Date: 19 Feb 2015 | The University of Bath conducts internationally-leading research in the area of III-Nitride semiconductors within the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Research Associate to join the research team as part of a 5-year EPSRC grant entitled ‘Manufacturing nano-GaN’. This project is being led by Bath and also involves the Universities of Bristol, Sheffield and Strathclyde and a number of industrial partners. The appointed person will be responsible for developing large-area nanolithography processes for a number of applications using state-of-the-art equipment that is currently being purchased. Using the nanostructured materials you will perform high-quality research in collaboration with our project partners in the areas of nanophotonics, optoelectronics and materials science. One area of focus will be the creation of core-shell light emitters building on Bath’s excellent track record in this area. We are looking for a motivated experimentalist, proficient in III-V semiconductor processing with the potential to publish in the leading peer-reviewed journals and to help define new areas of research. Prior experience in III-Nitrides and/or their growth by MOVPE is desirable. You should be able to work collaboratively with others and be willing to fit in with the project aims throughout its duration.
