PhD Position in Scanning Probe Microscopy, Functional Surfaces, and Quantum Materials at École de technologie supérieure École de technologie supérieure in Canada

PhD opportunity at École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS) in Montréal, Canada, in the research group of Omur Dagdeviren, Associate Professor. The lab works on scanning probe microscopy and related nanoscale characterization methods, including non-contact atomic force microscopy, Kelvin probe force microscopy, time-resolved atomic force microscopy, and force spectroscopy.

The research theme centers on functional surfaces, interfaces, oxide materials, and quantum materials, with strong relevance to materials science and physics. The post notes that graduates from the group are highly sought after in both academic and industrial settings.

Applicants with backgrounds in mechanical engineering, materials science, physics, chemistry, nanotechnology, or related fields are encouraged to apply. Helpful experience includes scanning probe microscopy, surface science, instrumentation, and programming.

To apply, candidates should email their CV, transcripts, and a brief statement of research interests directly to the professor. No formal deadline or funding details are stated in the post.
