Post doctoral position.

The postdoctoral fellow in materials science and/or physical chemistry will be located at the Center for Environmental and Energy Research of the Ghent University Global Campus, South Korea. The campus is located in the city of Song-do, Incheon.
The postdoctoral fellow will work under the supervision of Prof. Serge Zhuiykov on the physical and electronic properties of ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) metal oxide semiconductors fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD). ALD is a high vacuum, the ultra-precise technique for deposition of a variety of ultra-thin films with nano-metric dimensionalities. Outstanding optoelectronic, biosensing and memristive properties are recently observed and reported owning to the distinguished properties of 2D oxide materials. The research group enthusiastically endeavors to explore the novel characteristics of 2D oxide films.
Furthermore, as the teaching assistant, the postdoctoral fellow will be responsible to organize and implement the practical courses, laboratory sessions and also to follow the teaching responsibilities. The applicant will also be responsible for the guidance of bachelor students for their bachelor thesis.
