The postdoc will be involved in two projects focusing on the coupling of surface acoustic waves and spin waves to create new spin-wave majority gates (ANR SACOUMAD) or phase-shifting arrays using SAW-FMR coupling (European horizon project MandMEMS). In these projects, it is therefore necessary to excite SAWs at high frequencies ~4-6 GHz to obtain applications in new information and telecommunication technologies, and to control SW emission.
Activities
- Cleanroom sample production using optical and electronic lithography
- Magneto-acoustic measurements
- Brillouin spectroscopy and TR-MOKE (Time Resolved - Magneto Optical Kerr Effect) measurements

- Knowledge of surface acoustic wave generation, impedance matching, etc.
- Know-how in clean room, electronic and optical lithography, dry etching and deposition.
- Knowledge of magnetism would be a plus, but can be acquired.
- Use of multiphysics simulation tools (e.g. COMSOL) would be an asset.
- Taste for teamwork
