New semiconductor materials for neutron detection

Condensed matter physics, chemistry & nanosciences Engineering sciences Materials and applications Radiation-matter interactions

Abstract

The candidate will work at CEA LITEN on the development of organic-inorganic perovskite single crystals. The solution-growth protocols will be inspired by preliminary work from several internships and PhD. The student will vary the material's structure, chemical composition, or doping in order to optimize scintillation and direct detection performances for fast neutron detection. The best compositions selected based on their structural, optical properties, and responses under X-rays will then be integrated into detectors and characterized under various neutron fluxes and energies. Their performances and durability under irradiation will be studied and benchmarked to existing materials.

Holder of a PhD in materials science or chemistry, with the ability to work with multidisciplinary teams (collaboration with the teams at CEA LETI in Grenoble, IRESNE in Cadarache, and LIST in Saclay), good autonomy, and strong organizational skills will be major assets to successfully carry out this mission.
