ICFO is offering a postdoctoral position to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientist who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.

The postdoctoral researcher will investigate the optoelectronic properties of moiré quantum materials under high current-bias conditions, with a focus on quantum geometry and its role in phototransport and photocurrent generation. The work aims to establish connections between quantum geometric quantities (Berry curvature, quantum metric) and experimentally observable high-bias transport and optical signatures in moiré systems, including the study of electronic criticalities.

Main tasks and responsibilities include:
- Device design and nanofabrication of van der Waals heterostructures based on twisted 2D materials (dry transfer, cleanroom lithography, encapsulation)
- Cryogenic optoelectronic and magneto-transport measurements, including photocurrent spectroscopy and phototransport characterization in high current-bias regimes




- Data analysis and interpretation of experimental results in the context of quantum geometry and moiré physics
- Supervision and mentoring of PhD students and master/bachelor students within the group
- Dissemination of results through publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentation at international conferences

- Nanofabrication of van der Waals heterostructures: dry transfer techniques, cleanroom lithography (e-beam and/or optical), encapsulation with hBN, and edge/top contact fabrication
- Cryogenic measurements: hands-on experience operating cryostats (dilution refrigerator and/or He-flow systems) for low-temperature optoelectronic and transport experiments
- Photocurrent and phototransport measurements: experience with lock-in detection, gate
