PhD Position: Functional heterostructures, C2N: PhD Position in Growth of advanced functional heterostructures in III-V nanowires at the Centre for Nanosciences and Nanotechnology – Marcoussis Campus
PhD position: Work will be carried out in the framework of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie European ITN project titled INDEED, that colaborates 11 academic labs, 2 industrial partners alongwith associated partners.
Work Involved: The PhD student at C2N will perform research on :
- Growth by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of nanowires of III-V semiconductors.
- Maintain an intimate coupling between experimental investigations
- Modeling of the nucleation and growth mechanisms.
- Explore the growth of two kinds of heterostructures.
- Involves a high aspect ratio quantum size insertions of a material different from the rest of the nanowire.
- Nanowire where a spatial modulation of the electronic properties will be achieved by varying the diameter of the structure rather than composition.
- Fabricating arrays of such structures on a patterned substrate with a high yield of vertical and identical nanowires.
To develop and perform advanced modeling of the growth of these structures and to investigate experimentally their fabrication.
