1 settimana fa


Pisa, Toscana, Italia Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia A tempo pieno

Project Overview:

This initiative, titled "Future Artificial Intelligence Research (FAIR)", is supported by funding from the Ministry of University and Research. It aims to foster extensive partnerships among universities, research centers, and industries to finance fundamental research projects.

Position Type: Postdoctoral Researcher

Location: Pisa

About the Project:

In this innovative endeavor, we are leveraging artificial neural networks and evolutionary reinforcement learning to enhance the growth of two-dimensional homo/heterostructures with exceptional accuracy. Our objective is to refine the growth process to target specific crystal phases, thereby unlocking new avenues in materials science. By integrating cutting-edge AI methodologies with materials synthesis, we are advancing the control and predictability in the engineering of 2D materials, which will facilitate novel applications in electronics, photonics, and more.

About Us:

At the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, we are dedicated to developing human-centered science and technology to address significant societal challenges and transfer these innovations to the production system and society. Our headquarters in Genoa is closely linked with our 11 centers across Italy and two international stations in the US, providing a truly interdisciplinary experience.

Your Role:

You will collaborate within a diverse and multidisciplinary team, consisting of physicists, chemists, surface scientists, electrical and biomedical engineers, each contributing their expertise to achieve shared research goals in close cooperation with industrial partners.

The mission of our 2D Materials Engineering team is to synthesize, investigate, and customize two-dimensional materials and their heterostructures to enable the next generation of photonic, electronic, biomedical, and quantum devices. We cover the entire spectrum from designing novel materials with unprecedented electronic, optical, and magnetic properties to their practical implementation in real-world applications and industrial production.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with the artificial intelligence development team to ensure the effective implementation of neural networks for targeted growth objectives.
  • Conduct chemical vapor deposition growth of selected 2D materials, following established experimental protocols and safety standards.
  • Prepare samples, including cleaning and fabrication in a cleanroom environment, to ensure high quality and consistency.
  • Characterize samples using techniques such as Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy to evaluate material properties.
  • Analyze data to derive significant insights from experimental results.

Qualifications:

  • A Ph.D. in Physics, Chemistry, Material Science, Electrical Engineering, Materials Engineering, or related fields is required.
  • Demonstrated strong experimental skills.
  • A solid publication record.
  • Ability to effectively report, organize, and publish research findings.
  • Creativity and a strong enthusiasm for research are essential.
  • Proficiency in spoken and written English.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous experience in the growth of 2D materials is highly valued.
  • Familiarity with artificial neural networks and machine learning.
  • Experience working in a cleanroom environment.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • A proactive problem-solving approach.
  • High motivation to learn and innovate.
  • Effective time and priority management skills.
  • Ability to thrive in a challenging and international setting.
  • Capability to work both independently and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary context.

Compensation and Benefits:

  • Competitive salary package aligned with international standards.
  • Private health care coverage.
  • A wide range of staff discounts.

What We Offer:

  • An inclusive and multicultural environment that welcomes diverse talents.
  • Opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange.
  • A culture that values innovation and aims to make a meaningful impact on society.
  • Commitment to our core values of integrity, courage, societal responsibility, and inclusivity.

If you are excited about the prospect of contributing to groundbreaking research in 2D materials, we encourage you to consider this opportunity.
