The Physics Department and the National Institute of Standards & Technology through the Professional Research Experience Program welcomes applications for multiple positions for a Research Associate and a Senior Research Associate. The successful applicants will design and fabricate micro- and nano- electronics in the NIST Boulder Microfabrication Facility. These electronics will consist of specialized sensors for electromagnetic radiation and/or particles, as well as readout circuitry for the same sensors. The sensors and readout circuitry will make use of superconducting materials, low temperatures, and quantum mechanical effects. Key goals are to realize more sensitive and larger format sensor and readout circuits. Successful applicants will also support testing or perform testing of sensors and readout circuitry at ambient and cryogenic temperatures.
