Research Opportunity
Plasma Spectroscopy, automation
Work description
PhD scholarship within the scope of the PRR Alliance for Energy Transition (ATE) project, for the development of nanostructures designed to generate and control surface electromagnetic waves (ESW) with the aim of monitoring water quality in different aquatic environments.
Plasmonics-based structures, hyperbolic metamaterials, and emerging ESW-based metasurfaces will be used for saltwater analysis.
Academic Qualifications
Master Degree in Physics Engineering
Minimum profile required
Enrolled in the Doctoral Program in Physics Engineering at the University of Porto (PRODEF)
Preference factors
- Extensive knowledge in simulation and manufacturing of nanostructures applied to optical sensors.
- Proven experience in thin film deposition by RF sputtering and electron beam.
Maintenance stipend: € 1259,64, according to the table of monthly maintenance stipend for FCT grants , paid via bank transfer. Grant holders may be awarded potential supplements, according to a quarterly evaluation process (Articles 19, 21 and 22 of the Regulations for Grants of INESC TEC and Annex II), up to a maximum limit of 50% of the monthly maintenance stipend.
INESC TEC supports costs with registration, enrolment or tuition fees, during the grant duration, under the terms established in the internal document: "Payment of Tuition fees to grant holders". The grant holder will benefit from health insurance, supported by INESC TEC.
