Beschreibung

Technische Universität Dresden (TUD), as a University of Excellence, is one of the leading and most
dynamic research institutions in the country. Founded in 1828, today it is a globally oriented,
regionally anchored top university as it focuses on the grand challenges of the 21st century. lt
develops innovative solutions for the world's most pressing issues. In research and academic
programs, the university unites the natural and engineering sciences with the humanities, social
sciences and medicine. This wide range of disciplines is a special feature, facilitating interdisciplinarity
and transfer of science to society. As a modern employer, it offers attractive working conditions to all
employees in teaching, research, technology and administration. The goal is to promote and develop
their individual abilities while empowering everyone to reach their full potential. TUD embodies a
university culture that is characterized by cosmopolitanism, mutual appreciation, thriving innovation
and active participation. For TUD diversity is an essential feature and a quality criterion of an excellent
university. Accordingly, we welcome all applicants who would like to commit themselves, their
achievements and productivity to the success of the whole institution.

The
Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden (cfaed) offers a position as

Research Associate / Postdoc (M/F/x)***starting
as soon as possible. The position is limited until December 31, 2024. The period of
employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz

WissZeitVG). Balancing family and career is an important issue. The position is generally suitable for

position aims at obtaining further academic qualification.

Position:
Due to the way conventional CMOS-based architectures operate, they are ultimately limited
by the Neumann bottleneck which makes them slow and energy-inefficient at certain tasks
(vectorizable, highly parallel information processing). On the other hand, the human brain is an
example for an architecture capable of massively parallel processing of information through each
synaptic event only consumes about 1-100 fJ. Recent developments have shown that thin film
neuromorphic devices can be very competitive in this new field. With this research projects we want
to explore novel device and circuit architectures that enable neuromorphic circuit functionality.- collaborate with a circuit design group in the project MemTrap that is part of the DFG priority
- program "Memristive Devices Toward Smart Technical Systems" (SPP 2262);- fabricate thin film transistor devices and electric circuits that contain transistor devices - these
- can be oxide-based or organic - and memory devices based on neuromorphic circuit designs;- characterize the resulting devices and circuits both morphologically and electrically, the latter

including techniques such as I-V, C-V, C-f.

Requirements:

- minimum an outstanding university and PhD degree in physics, electronics, materials science
- or related field of physical sciences;- previous experience in fabrication of thin film electronic devices using photolithography or
- other lithographic structuring techniques;- basic knowledge in device physics/semiconductor physics;
- very good interpersonal and communication skills, in particular, the ability to effectively work
- in collaborative research efforts;- an independent, target
- and solution-driven work attitude;
- inter
- and multidisciplinary thinking;
- strong motivation and interest to join one of the most ambitious interdisciplinary research

clusters;
- fluency in English - written and oral.

Ideally also prior experience with circuit fabrication.

What we offer:
You will join a team of enthusiastic scientists who pursue creatively their individual
research agenda inspired by the cluster's innovative approach and support. Your research will be
fostered by the cfaed philosophy to promote aspiring researchers, which includes:

access to state-of-the-art research of leading academic institutes;

- promotion of gender equality and family-friendly work environment.

TUD strives to employ more women in academia and research. We therefore expressly encourage
women to apply. The University is a certified family-friendly university and offers a Dual Career
equally qualified, those with disabilities or with equivalent status pursuant to the German Social Code
IX (SGB IX) will receive priority for employment.
