Science jobs from University of Salerno:
From the point of view of learning and education the aim of the PhD Program is the development of professional skills suitable for the peculiar subject.
Problems connected to scientific research in the field of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are difficult to approach if one is confined in the classical Faculty and/or Department boundaries. These needings led to the creation of NANO_MATES the Interdisciplinary Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology promoting the present International PhD Program in Nanoscience e Nanotecnology.
The program is coordinated by University of Salerno and Jacobs University BremenSeveral positions will be available soon.

Research Topics:
The main scientific topics of the PhD program are outlined below:
-Nanostructured Materials:
Development of materials by syntesis and/or nanofabrication techniques: new bottom-up and
top-down approaches; nanostructuration in biological systems.
-Characterization Techniques of Nanostructures
Application and development of techniques for characterization of nanostructured
materials. Surface properties. Electric and electromagnetical properties. Optical
properties. Functional Characterization.
-Simulations and Theory
Development and application of theoretical and simulation approaches for nanostructured
materials and for novel devices based on nanostructured materials. Coarse-Graining and
Multiscale simulations.
-Novel Devices
Development and characterization of new devices.
