For informal enquiries, please contact Maksym Myronov (Associate Professor) at M.Myronov@warwick.ac.uk 

The Semiconductor Research Group (https://www.warwick.ac.uk/silicon) within the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick is seeking a highly motivated and talented Research Fellow to contribute to pioneering research in the development of quantum magnetic sensors and advanced imaging systems. These cutting-edge sensors have the potential to revolutionize fields such as medical imaging, navigation, geophysics, and materials science by enabling unprecedented sensitivity and precision in magnetic field detection and imaging.

Quantum magnetic sensors are poised to become a cornerstone of next-generation technologies, offering transformative capabilities in both fundamental research and real-world applications. This role provides a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of this technological revolution, driving scientific innovation and shaping the future of quantum devices. By joining our dynamic and collaborative team, you will play a critical role in advancing state-of-the-art quantum sensor technologies and their integration into impactful applications.

We will consider applications for employment on a part-time or other flexible working basis, even where a position is advertised as full-time, unless there are operational or other objective reasons why it is not possible to do so.  

About You  

The ideal candidate will possess exceptional expertise in the physics and technology of semiconductor materials and magnetic field sensor devices, including Hall sensors. You will have extensive hands-on experience in the microfabrication of magnetic field sensors and their electrical and structural characterisation using advanced techniques such as TEM, SEM, classical and quantum Hall effect measurements, and C-V and I-V characterization down to mK temperature.

You will be an outstanding communicator, capable of collaborating effectively within a multidisciplinary research team while also demonstrating the independence to drive your projects forward. Strong planning and time management skills are essential, enabling you to define clear milestones, establish realistic timelines, and ensure timely and efficient project execution.

Your responsibilities will include taking a leading role in the design, microfabrication, and routine characterization of magnetic field sensor devices, as well as driving their research and development. Additionally, you will contribute to the strategic direction of the group, report your findings to colleagues and collaborators, and disseminate your work through high-impact journal publications and conference presentations. With your talent, passion, and expertise, you will join a team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what is scientifically and technologically possible, making meaningful contributions to the advancement of magnetic field quantum sensors.

For further information regarding the skills required for this role please see the personal specification section of the attached job description.

If you are near submission or have recently submitted your PhD but have not yet had it conferred, any offers of employment will be made as Research Assistant at the top of level 5 of the University grade structure. Upon receipt of evidence of the successful award of your PhD, you will be promoted to Research Fellow on the first point of level 6 of the University grade structure

CLOSING DATE:  Monday 12th May 2025 at 11.55pm
