Phd On Modelling of Ultrafast Organic
2 maanden geleden
**Job description**:
**What is it about?**
Today, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are everywhere around us: in smartphone and tablet displays, televisions, and computer screens. But can we use these devices also for optical communication, maybe even for superfast on-chip and chip-to-chip communication? And can we make fast switching organic lasers and photodiodes? In the EU Pathfinder project “High-Speed Organic Photonics and OptoElectronics” (HiSOPE) you will address these questions together with colleagues in Paris, Grenoble, Kaunas, St. Andrews and Glasgow. You will collaborate intensively with the software company Scientific Computing and Modelling (SCM), which develops the software for quantum mechanical modelling.
**The research team**
You will work in the group Molecular Materials and Nanodevices (M2N), which researches optoelectronic devices of organic and perovskite semiconductors. The group is embedded both in the department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry (CEC) and the department of Applied Physics and Science Education (APSE), where you will be located. You will do theoretical/computational research, in close collaboration with experimental researchers.
**What will you learn?**
**Key challenge**
There are experimental indications that switching speeds of OLEDs in the GigaHertz range are possible, but understanding is lacking. The first electrically driven pulsed organic laser has been realized last year by the St. Andrews group, but its limits are unexplored. Organic photodiodes can switch more quickly than expected, but their ultimate response is unknown. Understanding how the underlying quantum mechanical processes determine the ultimate switching speed of these devices is the key challenge and your modelling research will play a central role. Ultrafast optical communication with organic optoelectronic devices is a very attractive alternative to WiFi. The compatibility of organic semiconductors with silicon means that these devices are also attractive for on-chip and chip-to-chip communication through optical fibers. Your work can therefore contribute to technological breakthroughs.
**Job requirements**:
- A master’s degree (or an equivalent university degree) in theoretical/computational Physics or Chemistry.
- Basic knowledge of AI.
- A research-oriented attitude.
- Ability to work in an interdisciplinary team and interested in collaborating with industrial partners.
- Motivated to develop your teaching skills and coach students.
- Fluent in spoken and written English (C1 level).
**Conditions of employment**:
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:
- Full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate evaluation (go/no-go) after nine months. You will spend 10% of your employment on teaching tasks.
- Salary and benefits (such as a pension scheme, paid pregnancy and maternity leave, partially paid parental leave) in accordance with the _Collective Labour Agreement_ for Dutch Universities.
- A year-end bonus of 8.3% and annual vacation pay of 8%.
- High-quality training programs and other support to grow into a self-aware, autonomous scientific researcher. At TU/e we challenge you to take charge of your own learning process.
- An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children's day care and sports facilities.
- An allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
**About us**
Eindhoven University of Technology is an internationally top-ranking university in the Netherlands that combines scientific curiosity with a hands-on attitude. Our spirit of collaboration translates into an open culture and a top-five position in collaborating with advanced industries. Fundamental knowledge enables us to design solutions for the highly complex problems of today and tomorrow.
