Get the best of both worlds with an industrial doctorate at Infineon: Pursue a doctoral degree at a university and gain professional experience simultaneously - an ideal start for your career. Advance your research with us and profit from our vast network of doctoral candidates and the expertise of a university. Mentorship is handled by both professors and dedicated Infineon experts.

We are offering a doctoral thesis in the field of SiC Quantum Sensor Development for a highly sensitive Health Sensor. This PhD thesis will immerse you in the comprehensive development of advanced quantum sensor technology. You will have the opportunity to explore various advanced topics. Firstly, you will understand how quantum systems can achieve unprecedented sensor performance through the principles of quantum sensing. Additionally, you will investigate the benefits of Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology, highlighting its mature fabrication techniques and its capability to operate at room temperature. Moreover, there will be a focus on SiC color-center-defect based quantum sensors and their optimization. This journey will encompass a comprehensive approach, involving a full spectrum of tasks such as quantum modeling, simulation, device implementation, characterization, system architecture, and fabrication.

The tasks within the thesis will consist of:

• Conduction of literature reviews on quantum sensing and SiC color-center-defect technologies
• Development and implementation of simulation models to predict sensor performance
• Investigation of novel quantum centers for quantum sensing, device simulation, implementation, characterization, system architecture, and fabrication
• Analysis of data to identify key parameters influencing sensor performance.
• Collaboration with researchers and engineers to refine sensor designs
• Documentation and presentation of findings to both technical and non-technical audiences
  
  Start: 01.04.2025 (or later)
  Full-time employment: 38.5 hrs/week
  Duration: 3 years
  

As the ideal candidate you have:

• A master's degree in Physics or comparable
• Passion about cutting-edge technology and innovative research
• A strong background in quantum mechanics and solid-state physics
• Experience with simulation tools and programming languages such as Python, MATLAB, or similar
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
• The ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Strong communication skills in English; German is an advantage
