Open PhD/PostDoc positions at the University of Pisa

device and 2D materials modeling, analog circuit design,

power electronics, wireless sensors design

We are in the process of opening a few positions for PhD students and for Post Docs at the University of Pisa, in the fields of modeling of nanoscale electron devices, 2D materials, analog circuit design, power electronics design and wireless sensors for harsh environments. We are now asking for expressions of interest from perspective candidates.

I would be very grateful if you could forward this information to whom you think could be interested in applying.

Expressions of interest must be submitted by email, together with a CV and contact information by 31 Dec 2019 to giuseppe.iannaccone@unipi.it.

The available research topics are listed below. They are typically performed in the framework of a larger project within a European collaboration or of a bilateral project with an industrial sponsor.

1. Theoretical investigation of ultra-low-power nanoscale transistors and memories for large scale integrated circuits. This will include devices based on heterostructures of 2D materials. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Electrical Engineering and/or Physics.

2. Quantum engineering of materials and devices based on heterostructures of 2D materials. This activity is based on materials modeling with quantum chemistry methods and quantum transport modeling. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Physical Chemistry and/or Physics.

3. Design of low-power analog integrated circuits for analog hardware accelerators of artificial intelligence (deep learning) algorithms and for new computing architectures. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Electrical Engineering.

4. Design of low-power mixed signal circuits for security hardware, such as physical unclonable functions and hardware security signatures. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Electrical Engineering.

5. Modeling of power devices based on GaN and SiC for performance and reliability optimization and model development. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Electrical Engineering and/or in Physics.

6. Design of highly efficient power management circuits and systems based on switched capacitors. Both circuits based on silicon technology, on SiC and on GaN will be considered. We are looking for candidates with strong background in Electrical Engineering.

PhD positions are for three years, Post Doc positions are initially for one year and might be renewed for up to four years. Positions of shorter duration (for visiting students/scholars or for MS thesis projects) might be considered depending on the expertise of the candidate and the definition of a suitable subproject.

For additional information and specific information on the projects, please send an email to
