Postdoctoral research fellowship on energy storage using topological spin textures in oxides | Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby‐Taarbæk Municipality, Denmark | Technical University of Denmark

Position:	Postdoctoral research fellowship on energy storage using topological spin textures in oxides
Institution:	Technical University of Denmark
Location:	Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby‐Taarbæk Municipality, Denmark
Duties:	The objective of this project is to investigate the possibility of storing the energy in topological spin textures like skyrmions. Due to the magnetic exchange interaction, the stability of each skyrmion can be enormously high and can easily at room temperature have an average lifetime that would enable energy storage over timescales of years! Similarly, due to the large displacement speeds of skyrmions, one could imagine a corresponding charging and discharging process of the energy storage principle on very short timescales; something together with the unparalleled energy storage stability cannot be achieved with any existing technology today
Requirements:	PhD In Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering or similar; A strong background in applied physics/materials science; Previous experience in studying topological spin textures is a requirement either with a background in: i) imaging using e.g. Lorentz transmission electron microscopy or magnetic force microscopy, or ii) characterization of electrical conductivity and/or magnetic properties; Previous experience in nano/micrometre device fabrication techniques, especially e-beam lithography is advantageous, but not a requirement
