PhD Position: Solid State Reactions in Complex Thin Film Architectures 100%

Overview

We are seeking a candidate to develop novel materials for on‑chip heat delivery and self‑healing at the Laboratory for Nanometallurgy, ETH Zürich. The project focuses on nanofabrication, solid‑state reactions, and non‑equilibrium thermodynamics. Our research spans from nanoscale materials and optical metamaterials to the mechanics of hierarchical and biological materials. We aim to create materials with unprecedented properties by controlling structure at the atomic and nanometer scales.

Job description

• Material Design: Develop and characterize hierarchical materials capable of localized, on‑chip heat delivery and autonomous repair (self‑healing)
• Nanofabrication: Utilize advanced cleanroom techniques to fabricate structures at the nanometer and atomic scales
• Fundamental Research: Investigate the physics of solid‑state reactions
• Experimental Analysis: Employ high‑resolution microscopy and thermal characterization to...
