About the job

For a position as a PhD Candidate, the goal is a completed doctoral education up to an obtained doctoral degree.

We have an open PhD position in multi-scale modeling and simulations of polymer and antiferromagnet (AFM) composites for spintronics at the Department of Manufacturing and Civil Engineering, NTNU.

Spintronics, which manipulates the magnetization of AFMs, offers ultrafast THz spin dynamics and picosecond switching speeds. The absence of stray magnetic fields in AFMs allows for higher bit densities and increased storage capacities, making them ideal for next-generation memory devices. AFMs are also energy-efficient, reducing power consumption while maintaining high processing speeds, which is advantageous for chip design. AFM-based components like interconnects, oscillators, transistors, and logic gates promise improved performance in integrated circuits using electron spin without creating disruptive magnetic fields.

This PhD project will focus on the integration of polymers with AFM materials using a multi-scale modeling framework to explore new possibilities in spintronic applications.

The candidate will report to the Head of Department.

Duties of the position


	Implement multi-scale modeling for polymer and AFM composites using software tools such as VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, VAMPIRE, and MuMax3.
	Conduct simulations to optimize the composite’s magnetic properties.
