The Department of Space, Earth and Environment contains five divisions, with research and education spanning from global challenges related to sustainability and energy supply to astronomy and space sciences. The department is host to two major infrastructures, Onsala Space Observatory and Chalmers Power Central, and consist of about 250 employees.
Project description
The Group for Advanced Receiver Development (GARD) carries out research in the field of Terahertz technology and instrumentation for environmental sciences and radio astronomy, within the Onsala Space Observatory division at the department of Space, Earth and Environment. GARD research activities include elements of low-temperature physics, superconducting electronics, material science and thin-film technology. Being an internationally recognized research group, with its state-of-art Terahertz instrumentation, GARD was and is participating in large-scale international projects, such as Herschel HIFI, ALMA and APEX.
As a PostDoc with us at GARD, you will be involved in development of quasioptical solutions and receiver systems aiming to achieve ultra-wideband RF and IF performance components for next generation instruments for OSO, APEX, ALMA, and EHT.
