A research fellowship for a phd degree is offered within the area of Physical Electronics (MBE growth of semiconductor lasers) at the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications ( http://www.iet.ntnu.no ) in the Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
The research fellowship is financed by The Research Council of Norway under the project Fabrication of tunable mid-IR laser diodes for sensor and communication applications.
We seek a highly motivated individual holding a masters degree in physics (specialized in solid state physics), physical electronics or other relevant diciplines.
The successful candidate will work on a project for fabrication of tunable mid-IR laser diodes in the wavelength interval 2-4 micrometers for sensor and communication applications. The successful candidate will be involved in the growth of GaSb-based compound semiconductor laser structures by Molecular Beam Epitaxy and material characterization by e.g. photo-luminescence, X-ray difraction and electron microscopy.
The candidate will work in a rich scientific environment through collaborations with other departments at the university, NTNU-NanoLab ( http://www.ntnu.no/nanolab/index.php ), Norwegian Defense Research Establishment, and Center for High Technology Materials (CHTM) at University of New Mexico, USA. The candidate will benefit from a strong and multidiciplinary training.
Interested candidate are encouraged to contact Professor Bjørn-Ove Fimland by phone +47 73594409 or e-mail: bjorn.fimland [at] iet.ntnu.no for further information.

The application must contain information about education, examinations and previous experience. Certified copies of certificates and documents must be attached.
Copies of publications and any other work which the applicant wishes to be taken into account should also be enclosed. Joint works will be considered. If it is difficult to specify the input of the applicant in a joint work, a short summary should be attached outlining the applicant’s input.
Applications are to be sent to:
Norwegian University of Science and Technology
Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering
Sem Sælands vei 5
N 7491 Trondheim
Norway
Applications should be marked Jnr. IME-050-2007.
The application deadline is September 10, 2007.
