PhD position in the Wireless Sensor Networks group to develop next-generation of wireless sensing systems using advanced nanomaterials and additive manufacturing technologies. The project aims to develop a supply chain monitoring system that does not require batteries, using innovative technology to harvest energy from 4G/5G signals.
Job Responsibility:
The simulation and design of electromagnetic antenna and rectifier (Rectennaa) systems, their synthesis and implementation in IoT sensing technology and the test and characterisation of the Energy Harvesting enabled wireless sensing technologies developed.
Activities will include focused research including literature reviews, hypothesis development and identification of novelty associated with the development of peer reviewed publications commensurate with a PhD thesis.
Work with RF experts and researchers in the WSN group and having Collaboration with the Tyndall Materials Nano technology Group
Engagement in the wider Micro Nano Systems Centre
The candidate will be expected to write scientific publications associated with their work and travel to international conferences, workshops, industry and project meetings.
Participate in Education and Public Engagement activities.
Ensure compliance with Tyndall's Quality Management, and Health and Safety standards.
Perform additional duties as required within the scope of the post.
Requirements:
Applicants should have a first, upper second class honours (in top-5%) undergraduate or masters postgraduate degree in Electronics, Engineering, or similar with experience in electronics design, materials characterisation, embedded system integration and Electromagnetics design.
Self- motivated and able to work as part of a multidisciplinary research team.
Strong written and verbal communication skills in English suitable for technical documentation, presentations, and publication.
A clear motivation letter describing why you want to pursue this PhD and how your skills and experience relate to the project.
Evidence of research experience through an undergraduate project, internship, publication or conference presentation.
Nice to have:
A background and demonstrated experience in RF characterization of materials, Electronics, PCB design and simulation using CST, Altium Designer, COMSOL or similar systems
Experience and knowledge in materials deposition would be beneficial. Also, knowledge about microscopy characterization methods (X-ray, SEM, 4-point probe, …) and dielectric measurement facilities (DAK-TL system, …) would be great.
Experience in deposition of materials using different methods would be of benefit
Experience in working in multidisciplinary projects is a plus
Experience in PCB design and Electronics would be benefit.
What we offer:
A generous tax-free scholarship stipend payment including tuition fees covered.
20 days per annum annual leave for full-time research students, in addition to public holidays.
Full coverage of travel expenses to international conferences to present project outcomes.
Training and development opportunities are also provided.
