Postdoctoral Researcher: Theory of Carrier Transport and Recombination Processes
Tyndall National Institute
Postdoctoral Researcher: Theory of Carrier Transport and Recombination Processes in Boron Containing Semiconductor Alloys and Heterostructures for Optoelectronic Devices
Contract: Full Time/Fixed Term – 1 yearsThe III-N Materials and Devices, and Photonics Theory Groups at Tyndall National Institute have attracted major funding to understand and develop semiconductor optoelectronic devices using III-nitride semiconductors with boron containing alloys. This work requires detailed theoretical and experimental understanding of the fundamental properties of the material and their consequences for optoelectronic devices.As part of this award, Tyndall and University College Cork are inviting now applications for a researcher focusing on the theory of carrier transport and recombination in boron III-N alloys and heterostructures. The researcher shall develop multi-scale carrier transport and recombination models. Here, emphasis is on combining semi-empirical electronic structure approaches (e.g. localization landscape theory) and drift-diffusion-based models. The theoretical studies will go hand in hand with the experimental investigations carried out in the project to ensure its overall success. Both research groups are well-established with significant teams, and who interact with others as part of a vibrant multi-investigator activity covering infrared to ultraviolet optoelectronic devices.Key Responsibilities and research objectives
