consuming.

The aim of the PhD is therefore to conceive, based on in-house quantum transport codes, hybrid cooling devices, exploiting both electronic and phononic transport properties at the nanoscale, under electrical stimulation. The position is fulltime in the framework of the EXOTHERM project funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR).

TYPE OF CONTRACT: TEMPORARY

JOB STATUS: FULL TIME

APPLICATION DEADLINE: 31/05/2026, 23:00

ENVISAGED STARTING DATE: 01/09/2026

ENVISAGED DURATION: 36 months

WORK LOCATION(S): Institut Matériaux Microélectronique Nanosciences de Provence IM2NP Lab, Faculté des Sciences de Saint Jérôme, Case 142, 13397 Marseille Cedex 20, France.

WHAT WE OFFER:

• Salary: 2300€/month before tax
• Strong collaboration with partners at the University of Tokyo. The project is also funded by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). Several stays of the PhD at UTokyo are therefore scheduled to promote the interactions.

Additional information: The Euraxess Center of Aix-Marseille Université informs foreign visiting professors, researchers, postdoc and PhD candidates about the administrative steps to be undertaken prior to arrival at AMU and the various practical formalities to be completed once in France: visas and entry requirements, insurance, help finding accommodation, support in opening a bank account, etc. More information on AMU EURAXESS Portal

QUALIFICATIONS, REQUIRED RESEARCH FIELDS, REQUIRED EDUCATION LEVEL, PROFESSIONAL SKILLS, OTHER RESEARCH REQUIREMENTS

Applicants must hold a Master in physics, material science or electrical engineering. Expertise in quantum transport simulation or ab initio codes would be a strong asset.

Soft skills: Autonomy, Teamwork
