The Functional Printing & Embedded Devices Unit develops innovative solutions based on functional materials and devices.
This Unit has the knowledge and experience to contribute from research concepts to prototyping and manufacturing. The Unit can cover the entire TRL chain, from the conceptualization of the idea to prototype validation, including design, proof of concept, material analysis, processes, prototyping, and characterization.
The specialization areas of the Unit include the formulation of functional inks, printing and coating processes for lightweight and flexible devices, their characterization, and in terms of electronics, the design, development, and manufacturing of conventional PCB electronics and hybrid electronics.
The team is looking for a researcher to support the development of printed sensors for health and environmental monitoring applications.
Some of the projects include:
* Development and validation of electrochemical sensors and Point-Of-Care devices for measuring different biomarkers in medical applications.
* Development of Lab-On-Chip devices for measuring different parameters in water.
* Development of piezoelectric devices for health and structural integrity applications.
The candidate will work on the development of printed electronics-based sensors for flexible device applications and their integration into miniaturized microfluidic systems.
Tasks include:
* Study of the most advanced technologies.
* Design and fabrication of monitoring platforms based on printed sensors combined with microfluidic chips.
* Functionalization of surfaces with various biorecognition strategies.
* Preparation of experimental procedures.
* Physicochemical characterization of materials (electrical, optical, morphological characterization techniques, etc.).
* Analysis and presentation of results.
* Preparation of technical reports.
The candidate will join a dynamic and multicultural work environment, with a focus on generating value for clients and using agile and innovative project management methodologies.
