assignment
Deposition and analysis of piezoelectric thin films
Contact: Dr. Muharrem Bayraktar (m.bayraktar@utwente.nl)
Are you enthusiastic about active materials and their use in state of the art systems? We are looking for an enthusiastic student to work on deposition and analysis of piezoelectric materials in thin film form.
The assignment entails working in the lab with a team of postdocs and technicians to develop piezoelectric thin films with improved response. You will be gaining experience in depositing piezoelectric thin films with pulsed laser deposition and/or magnetron sputtering techniques, and the analysis of the deposited films with x-ray diffraction. Regular contacts with the industrial partners ensure the relevance of your work with the next generation high tech systems.
