Closing date: 10th May 2015
Job Ref: 010324

Working with Drs Stephen McVitie and Damien McGrouther at the University of Glasgow and Professor Chris Marrows at the University of Leeds you will contribute to a project “current-driven domain wall motion and magnetomemristance in FeRh-based nanostructures”.

This will involve taking samples of continuous and patterned FeRh samples on bulk and thin substrates from the University of Leeds and preparing samples for TEM analysis. TEM studies will be undertaken to look at the physical, elemental and magnetic structure of the materials. Data analysis for extraction of quantitative information will be undertaken together with simulations of the materials properties to aid understanding of the observations. Close collaboration with the PDRA at the University of Leeds will be a key part of the project with controlled domain wall movement by application of an electrical current in a FeRh nanostructure one of the ultimate goals.

Specifically, the job requires expert knowledge in advanced functional materials and electron microscopy and the successful candidate will also be expected to contribute to the formulation and submission of research publications and research proposals as well as help manage and direct this complex and challenging project as opportunities allow.
