Overall Purpose of the Job

A research Associate position is available for an outstanding individual to work on advanced III-V semiconductor Quantum Well Hall Effect (QWHE) sensor devices based on integrated Hall Effect integrated circuits (HIC). The project includes the physical design, layout and testing of analogue low-noise electronics drive circuit techniques using pHEMT and QWHE sensors as well as off-chip high-speed digital circuit design for fast data acquisition.

The aim of this project is to demonstrate prototype III-V semiconductor HIC devices within a magnetic system based on linear Hall Effect sensors in 2D array format. The project will include physical device simulation and layout of integrated circuits, high-speed data acquisitions board and NDT testing. 

The specific role of this post is the development of integrated circuits to drive QWHE 2D array structures for nanoTesla magnetometry at extremes of operating temperatures.
