Studierende finden an der ETH Zürich ein Umfeld, das eigenständiges Denken fördert, Forschende ein Klima, das zu Spitzenleistungen inspiriert.
The Advanced Power Semiconductor Laboratory (APS) at the Department of Information Technology (D-ITET) is looking for a PhD candidate working on wide-bandgap semiconductor research involving device fabrication and characterization.
With the continuous increase of the worldwide power consumption, energy efficiency is a primary concern of our modern society. Wide-bandgap semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) are promising candidates to increase the efficiency of power electronic systems by replacing conventional Si devices. However, despite their successful entrance into the power electronic market, a number of issues have to be resolved to realize the full potential of this material.
This project focuses on the investigation of material and device properties of silicon carbide. Optimization of established device fabrication methods as well as the development of electrical characterization methods will deepen the understanding of current performance limitations of SiC devices.
We strongly support participation at international conferences and offer a salary according to , excellent benefits as well as outstanding research and laboratory facilities for your experiments. This PhD position requires regular commuting to the Paul-Scherrer-Institut (PSI) and the Binning and Rohrer Nanotechnology Center (BRNC) outside of Zurich.
Applicants for this position are expected to have a very good MSc degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering or related disciplines and a solid background in semiconductor physics.
We are looking for highly motivated, creative, and committed candidates with excellent communication skills in English, both oral and written. The ability to combine strong individual research with teamwork within the project completes your profile.
We look forward to receiving your online application including a letter of motivation, copies of Bachelor and Master’s degree transcripts, a CV and the names and contact information of at least two referees. Please note that we exclusively accept applications submitted through our online application portal. Applications via email or postal services will not be considered.
