Tenure-track position in the Nanotechnology Group at University of Salamanca Spain
NanoTECH is a multidisciplinary group made up of researchers from different departments of the University of Salamanca. Our current work has a major emphasis on developing novel low-dimensional systems for fundamental physics. We employ several experimental methodologies (i.e. low-temperature magnetotransport, photocurrent spectroscopy, THz emission and detection) with a common stem in clean-room-based work and two-dimensional materials. We are looking for scientist with good background in 2D materials, semiconductor physics and optics that can integrate and strengthen the level of our group. Candidates with interest in twisted layers of 2D materials are particularly welcomed.
Salary & Benefits:
The position is tenable for 30 months in a tenure-track process. Each fellowship includes funds for travel, reasonable research expenses as well as competitive salary. The total cost of a fellowship is 4.855 €/month and the net salary of the ER will be around 3.500 €/month. The net salary results from deducting all compulsory (employer/employee), Healthcare contributions as well as direct taxes (e.g., income tax) from the gross amounts. Further details can be consulted in:
https://usal4excellence.usal.es/fellowship-conditions/
At the end of the fellowship the University of Salamanca will promote candidates to associate professors upon completion of most of the project goals.
