Post-doctoral position: diamond-based electronic and quantum devices

Missions
The recruited person will participate in various ongoing projects within the Diamond and Carbon Materials (DCM) team focusing on the integration of diamond layers in devices for power electronics (PEPR Électronique FrenchDiam) and quantum technologies (ANR projects TRAMPOLINE and SINFONIA). These projects require, initially, to master the process of developing single crystal diamond layers doped with boron, for integration into vertical power components, and doped with nitrogen, for the creation of colored centers with quantum properties that can be exploited in different fields, notably in magnetometry. Secondly, the design of demonstrators using clean room technologies should make it possible to link the physicochemical and usage properties of diamond single crystals to the characteristics of electronic and quantum devices and to demonstrate the added value of diamond compared
to conventional materials.

Activities
The post-doctoral fellow will ensure the running of research projects by participating in the
various planned tasks, in particular:

• Optimization of the process for producing single crystal diamond layers doped with boron
  and nitrogen;
• Physico-chemical and microstructural characterization of the layers produced (SEM, optical
  microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, electrical measurements, ODMR, etc.);
• Micro- and nano-manufacturing in clean rooms;
• Characterization of the electronic and quantum demonstrators produced.
  Skills

Work context
The work will be carried out at the Process and Materials Sciences Laboratory, CNRS LSPM
UPR3407, on the Villetaneuse campus (University Sorbonne Paris Nord). The postdoctoral
fellow will work within the PPANAM axis (Plasma Processes, Nanostructures and Thin Films)
and more particularly the DCM Research operation (Diamond and Carbon Materials).
The position is located in a sector falling under the protection of scientific and technical
potential (PPST), and therefore requires, in accordance with regulations, that your arrival be
authorized by the competent authority of the MESR.
