Organization:<\/strong> Chalmers University of Technology \u2013 Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience, Division of Terahertz and Millimetre Wave<\/p>\n

Chalmers University of Technology invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher<\/strong> position in far-infrared semiconductor electronics. The project is part of an ERC-funded initiative focused on developing next-generation semiconductor terahertz electronics for far-infrared (FIR) space instruments.<\/p>\n

The research aims to advance semiconductor-based receiver technology in the 2\u20135 THz frequency range<\/strong>, enabling highly sensitive and energy-efficient far-infrared heterodyne receivers. These technologies are expected to support future atmospheric science and space observation missions requiring advanced FIR\/THz instrumentation.<\/p>\n

Research Responsibilities<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Develop semiconductor-based antenna-integrated receivers for far-infrared and terahertz applications.<\/li>\n
  • Conduct experimental characterization of terahertz electronic devices and receiver systems.<\/li>\n
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary research teams working on nanoscience, photonics, and quantum technologies.<\/li>\n
  • Contribute to the development of high-sensitivity, low-power THz receiver architectures.<\/li>\n
  • Supervise Master\u2019s and\/or PhD students to a certain extent.<\/li>\n
  • Possibility to participate in teaching at undergraduate or Master\u2019s level.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Required Qualifications<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • PhD or equivalent foreign degree in a relevant field.<\/li>\n
    • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.<\/li>\n
    • Experience in terahertz technology and experimental characterization techniques.<\/li>\n
    • Demonstrated research potential and interest in teaching.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Preferred Qualifications<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • Doctoral degree obtained within the last three years prior to the application deadline.<\/li>\n
      • Experience in antenna theory and antenna design.<\/li>\n
      • Experience with semiconductor device technologies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Employment Conditions<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • Full-time temporary postdoctoral position for 2 years<\/strong> with the possibility of a 1-year extension<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
        • The position requires physical presence throughout the employment period.<\/li>\n
        • A valid residence permit must be presented before the start date if applicable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Research Environment<\/h3>\n

          The Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience provides a world-class research environment focused on quantum technology, nanoscience, photonics, and advanced electronic systems. Researchers have direct access to advanced nanofabrication facilities and collaborate with international academic and industrial partners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":11876,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","job_listing_type":[49,496,497],"job_listing_category":[479,623,622],"job_listing_location":[585],"job_listing_tag":[627,624,626,625],"class_list":["post-11893","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","job_listing_type-full-time","job_listing_type-postdoctoral","job_listing_type-research","job_listing_category-nanotechnology","job_listing_category-semiconductor-electronics","job_listing_category-terahertz-technology","job_listing_location-gothenburg-sweden","job_listing_tag-antenna-design","job_listing_tag-far-infrared","job_listing_tag-semiconductor-devices","job_listing_tag-thz-electronics"],"metas":{"_job_featured_image":"","_job_category":{"479":"Nanotechnology","623":"Semiconductor Electronics","622":"Terahertz Technology"},"_job_type":{"49":"Full Time","496":"Postdoctoral","497":"Research"},"_job_tag":{"627":"Antenna Design","624":"Far-Infrared","626":"Semiconductor Devices","625":"THz Electronics"},"_job_apply_type":"external","_job_apply_url":"https:\/\/www.chalmers.se\/en\/about-chalmers\/work-with-us\/vacancies\/","_job_apply_email":"","_job_salary_type":"","_job_experience":"","_job_qualification":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing\/11893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/job_listing"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/37"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11893"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing\/11893\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11894,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing\/11893\/revisions\/11894"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"job_listing_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_type?post=11893"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_category?post=11893"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_location?post=11893"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nanohelp.eu\/careers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_tag?post=11893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
