The Opportunity

An exciting opportunity has become available for a Research Fellow to join the ARC Centre of Excellence in Future Low-Energy Electronics Technologies (FLEET). FLEET, an international innovator in novel electronics technologies, aims to build capacity for advanced electronics research in Australia and train the workforce for the next generation of electronic materials researchers and future semiconductor industry.

In this role, you will conduct research in experimental condensed matter physics and nanoscience. The project aims to synthesise and investigate atomically precise low-dimensional nanomaterials by means of molecular beam epitaxy, low-temperature scanning probe microscopy, electron transport measurements and synchrotron-based surface science spectroscopy.

This position is suited to a highly motivated individual who holds a doctoral qualification in Physics, Physical Chemistry, Materials Engineering, or a closely related field. Research experience in ultra-high vacuum science, materials science, solid-state physics, scanning probe microscopy, molecular beam epitaxy, synchrotron-based surface science techniques, low-temperature physics and/or electron transport measurements is an advantage.

This role is a full-time position; however, flexible working arrangements may be negotiated.

Your application must address the selection criteria. Please refer to "How to apply for Monash Jobs".
