(07) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: PhD Student in implementation of autonomous epitaxy combining experiments, simulations and machine learning

This project aims to develop, implement, and validate a fully autonomous route for the optimization of the growth of epitaxial oxide thin films using physical vapor deposition. Multiple in situ characterization techniques will be employed, monitoring quality indicators of the films while they are growing and allowing for the live tuning of the growth parameters.

You will be responsible for developing a hardware-software interface for autonomous thin film growth (including both the operation of the chamber and the monitoring of the in situ techniques). You will combine these interfaces with machine learning approaches, exploring optimization algorithms to control the structural and chemical properties of the resultant thin films, aiming at determining the parameters for crystalline and stoichiometric epitaxial growth. The resulting code that you develop, and implement will be integrated into an autonomous platform to drive the search for the ideal growth conditions. Subsequently, you will demonstrate and validate the developed models through the autonomous growth optimization of functional oxide thin films (it is expected that approximately half of the time during the PhD is spent in the laboratory and half on the software part.) The infrastructure, the methods and the collected data will be published in peer reviewed articles. 

Deadline : 28 May 2025

About The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), Switzerland- Official Website

The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) is a multi-disciplinary research institute for natural and engineering sciences in Switzerland. It is located in the Canton of Aargau in the municipalities Villigen and Würenlingen on either side of the River Aare, and covers an area over 35 hectares in size. Like ETH Zurich and EPFL, PSI belongs to the ETH Domain of the Swiss Confederation. The PSI employs around 3000 people. It conducts basic and applied research in the fields of matter and materials, human health, and energy and the environment. About 37% of PSI’s research activities focus on material sciences, 24% on life sciences, 19% on general energy, 11% on nuclear energy and safety, and 9% on particle physics.

PSI develops, builds and operates large and complex research facilities and makes them available to the national and international scientific communities. In 2017, for example, more than 2,500 researchers from 60 different countries came to PSI to take advantage of the concentration of large-scale research facilities in the same location, which is unique worldwide. About 1,900 experiments are conducted each year at the approximately 40 measuring stations in these facilities.
