Job description

A Project Leader (Postdoc position) is available in the Functional Inorganic Materials Group (KovalenkoLab) at ETH Zurich, Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences. 

The project aims to develop a conceptually new type of image sensor based on perovskite materials.

State-of-the-art electronic device fabrication techniques will be applied during the project, including thermal evaporation, magnetron sputtering, spin-coating, photolithography, and plasma etching. Advanced optical and electronic methods will be used for device characterization. 

  • Synthesis and deposition of perovskite thin films (e.g., thermal co-evaporation) 
  • Fabrication of charge-selective layers and transparent conductive oxide electrodes 
  • Development of perovskite-specific integration and patterning methods (adapted photolithography, dry/wet etching) 
  • Comprehensive optoelectronic characterization of fabricated devices 
  • Collaboration with industrial partners 
  • Maintaining thin-film deposition setups
  • Supervision of the project with PhD students and a junior PostDoc
Profile
  • A PhD in physics, chemistry, materials science, or engineering with a strong publication record 
  • Solid experimental background in materials science and chemistry, and basic knowledge of electronics 
  • Mandatory experience in photodetectors, thin-film deposition, and microfabrication methods 
  • Strong background in experimental hardware and programming skills 
  • Willingness to take responsibility for a thin-film deposition cluster, consisting of two thermal evaporation setups and one magnetron sputtering setup, including supervision and maintenance 
  • Abilities to manage complicated research projects and supervise a team of researchers (including PhD students and Postdocs) 
  • Excellent communication skills and fluency in English (both written and spoken) 
We offer
  • Training opportunities through ETH courses and workshops
  • Access to cutting-edge equipment in Functional Inorganic Materials and the ETH FIRST cleanroom
  • Support for international conference participation
  • International, multidisciplinary, and collaborative team culture
  • Excellent working environment with competitive salary and benefits
  • Inclusive and supportive atmosphere with strong commitment to diversity
