🎯
Are you passionate about 2D materials, thin‑film growth, and cutting‑edge R&D?

The Université de Sherbrooke, in partnership with Teledyne DALSA Bromont and the C2MI , is opening an exceptional postdoctoral position at the heart of next‑generation #MEMS technologies.

To push the performance limits of MEMS devices, Teledyne DALSA and the Université de Sherbrooke are collaborating to develop a new class of two‑dimensional materials, known for their high potential in advanced micro‑electromechanical systems.

Developing an innovative growth process (CVD and/or sputtering) to synthesize ultra‑thin 2D films.

Transferring these films onto appropriate substrates.

Characterizing their electrical, mechanical, thermal, and structural properties, using techniques such as:

Electronic transport measurements

Mechanical testing

Setting up the synthesis systems, optimizing the growth and transfer processes, and ultimately demonstrating wafer‑scale deposition for industrial MEMS applications.

This project offers a unique opportunity to work at the interface of 2D materials × microfabrication × advanced characterization.

You will evolve within a world‑class applied research ecosystem that includes:

🏭
C2MI – An international innovation hub for MEMS and advanced semiconductor packaging

🌐
Teledyne DALSA Bromont – One of the largest MEMS pure‑play foundries worldwide, operating 3,800 m² of cleanroom facilities for over 30 years
