A post-doctoral candidate will be selected to develop experimental studies of magnetic and electrical transport properties of graphene multilayers with and without Moiré super-lattices aiming to clarify the role of layer stacking in the occurrence of superconductivity, magnetism, metal-insulator transition, and quantum Hall effect in these materials. Research will be conducted at the Materials and Devices Laboratory (LMD) of the Department of Applied Physics (DFA) at the University of Campinas's Gleb Wataghin Institute of Physics (IFGW/UNICAMP), in Brazil, led by Prof. Dr. Yakov Kopelevich. This scholarship is linked to a Thematic Project entitled “Emergent Phenomena in Reduced Dimension Systems”, supported by the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP).
Requirements and desired skills for this post-doctoral position:
- PhD degree in physics, with title acquired in the last five years;
- Experience in: cryogenics; preparation and characterization of poly/mono crystalline samples and nanomaterials; electrical transport/magnetization measurements using commercial cryostats.
Applicants must submit the following documents (PDF format) up to 2021/01/15 to Prof. Dr. Yakov Kopelevich (kopel@ifi.unicamp.br ):
- Letter explaining reasons for interest;
- Curriculum Vitae;
- Two letters of recommendation.
This opportunity is open to candidates of any nationalities. The selected candidate will receive a FAPESP’s Post-Doctoral fellowship in the amount of R$ 7,373.10 monthly and a research contingency fund, equivalent to 10% of the annual value of the fellowship which should be spent in items directly related to the research activity.
