PhD student Experimental Physics (2 x 2 years)

Within the Institute for Materials Research (IMO) of Hasselt University, the following position (m/f) is available:
PhD student Experimental Physics (2 x 2 years)
(mandate WNI/2008/014)
Job description
The PhD student will conduct research within the BOF-project “Fabrication of nanocrystalline diamond-based acoustic devices for (bio-)sensing purposes”. Two main pathways will be followed, covering both “piezoelectric-on-diamond” as well as “diamond-on-piezoelectric”, combining thin nanocrystalline CVD diamond films with piezoelectric materials such as AlN, langasite, etc. Research will focus on devices based on surface and bulk acoustic waves, such as piezoelectric bimorph micro-cantilevers, flexural plate wave (FPW) devices, and thickness shear mode resonators. In a first stage, the candidate will have to get acquainted with deposition techniques and material optimisation followed by fabrication and characterisation of several device structures in order to obtain superior sensitivity levels than those currently available
Profile and diploma
Master degree (or equivalent) in either physics, chemistry, biomedical sciences, engineering or materials science. A background in material science and/or sensor technology is a plus.

The way to AMINEF in Gedung Balai Pustaka

American Indonesian Exchange Foundation
Balai Pustaka Building, 6th. Floor
Jl. Gunung Sahari Raya No. 4
Jakarta 10720, Indonesia

1. The buses which goes to Senen Bus Station all of them pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. Especially which route is through Pasar Baru .

2. Bus Transjakarta, from Blok M you have to change the bus 2-3 times.
Way 1 : from Blok M change the bus in Dukuh Atas bus stop to the bus towards Pulogadung, then take a bus in Pramuka bus stop towards Ancol, this bus pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. The closest bus stop (Budi Utomo) is about 800 meters from Gedung Balai .
Way 2 : From Blok M take the bus in the Harmoni Bus Stop, the bus towards Pulogadung, get down in Senen Bus Stop and walk about 800 meters, or from this bus stop take the bus towards Ancol and get down as mentioned in way 1. About the distance, this two bus stops is about the same. (It is better if you take ojek or bajaj from this bus stop to Gedung Balai Pustaka)

3. If you take taxi with old tariff (TL=Tarif Lama) from blok M with no traffic jam is about Rp. 30.000,00.

4. From Blok M use bus Patas AC 76. Gedung Balai Pustaka is in the right side, after you pass through Depag, and say to conductor "Balai Pustaka"

5. Use a busway from Blok M towards Kota, get down in Sawah Besar bus stop. From here take a Mikrolet M12 towards Senen. After cross road Wahidin and before senen get down and cross the street.
