**About the position**
PhD student (M/F/d)
- Molecular-beam epitaxy of novel nitride heterostructures exploiting polarization engineering

Wurtzite group III-nitride semiconductor heterostructures exhibit strong spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization fields on the order of a few MV/cm along the polar _c_-axis. Polarization engineering in these heterostructures offers innovative building blocks for photonic and electronic devices.

**Your responsibilities**
- Growth of nitride heterostructures by molecular beam epitaxy
- Sample characterization by x-ray diffractometry, atomic force microscopy, and Hall-effect and C-V measurements
- Band diagram simulation using 1D Poisson-Schrödinger solver
- Data analysis and planning of experiments
- Presentation of results at conferences and in publications

**Your profile**
- Master degree in physics, electrical engineering, materials science, or a related field
- Preferentially background in device physics or nanotechnology
- Experience with device fabrication is advantageous

**Position and salary**
This position is available from October 01, 2024 and is limited to a 3-year period initially with the perspective of a 1-year extension.

Salary and benefits are according to the Treaty for German public service (TVöD Bund) to a level of E13 (75%).

**What we offer**
- Modern laboratories with a wide range of experimental techniques
- Supportive environment with experts for various scientific sub-fields and a low number of students per advisor
- International and culturally diverse community
- Location in the heart of Berlin with excellent public transport connections
- a subsidized travel ticket
- Possibility to participate in professional development and/or student exchange programs

**About PDI**
The Paul-Drude-Institute is part of the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. and a member of the Leibniz Association. The institute carries out basic and applied research at the nexus of materials science, condensed matter physics, and device engineering.

In the Epitaxy department at PDI, a dedicated team of scientists, technicians, postdocs, and students operates 13 MBE systems for the synthesis of a wide range of material systems, including arsenides, nitrides, oxides, and 2D materials. This in-house collaborative environment offers abundant opportunities for both direct and indirect learning in various MBE technologies, making it an ideal place to start a career in the field.

For scientific information about the project, please contact Dr. YongJin Cho.

**Inclusive & equal opportunity employer**
- and life-conscious working environment.

**How to apply**

Your documents should include
- a dedicated cover letter
- CV
- diploma(s) and transcript(s)
- publication list (if present)
