We're hiring: Expert on nanofabrication of photonic nanostructures

Within our new ERC Proof of Concept project “PrintNano4Fluo”, we aim at bridging the technological gap between nanophotonics and single molecule fluorescence techniques. Our vision is to develop a cost-effective and scalable nanofabrication technique to produce nanophotonics devices with high optical performance. These nanophotonic devices will be further used by our group and our scientific collaborator worldwide to further advance biophysics studies focusing on single molecules.

To strengthen our multidisciplinary team, we are seeking for a specialist of nanofabrication of nanostructures using focused ion beam milling and related methods. The selected candidate will be performing the nanofabrication using our in-house dual-beam focused ion beam FIB system (FEI db235 Strata). He/she will also be involved in sol-gel nanoimprint lithography and in the sample characterization using scanning electron microscopy and optical spectroscopy.

Bringing nanophotonics tools to the end users single molecule microscopists is a distinctive way to make a true impact in the fields of nanosciences and biophysics to break into the physical limits set by diffraction.
