Job Description
Missions
The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to the development and demonstration of ferroelectric spin–orbit (FESO) devices based on two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) in BaTiO3. The project aims to explore a novel platform for ultralow-power electronic devices, combining ferroelectricity and spintronics, with strong potential for disruptive logic-in-memory computing architectures.
Activity
The candidate will carry out experimental work covering the full device chain: growth of ferroelectric thin films and 2DEGs (PLD, sputtering), nanofabrication in a cleanroom environment (UV and/or e-beam lithography), and electrical characterization (transport and magnetotransport). They will analyze device performance metrics such as output signal, switching speed, energy consumption, endurance, and scalability, and benchmark them against existing technologies (CMOS, MESO, etc.).
Your Profil
Skills
PhD in condensed matter physics or materials science. Strong background in magnetism, spintronics, and/or ferroelectricity. Experience in the growth of oxide thin films or ferroelectric materials. Proficiency in electrical transport measurements and data analysis. Experience in nanofabrication and cleanroom processes is highly desirable.
Your Work Environment
The project will be carried out within the Oxitronics group at Laboratoire Albert Fert (CNRS, Thales, Université Paris-Saclay), a leading laboratory in spintronics and oxide electronics. The lab offers a unique environment with advanced facilities for thin-film growth, nanofabrication, and characterization (XRD, scanning probe, magnetotransport). The project will be conducted in close interaction with the startup Nellow, with the goal of advancing FESO-based logic-in-memory architectures toward industrial deployment.
