High-performance Radio Communications Circuits in GaN Technology

We are looking for high calibre, telecommunications appropriately qualified graduates in engineering or equivalent to join our research team. Macquarie University offers post exciting research projects in microwave device, circuits and wireless applications that can expand your career horizons. Early career professionals interested in returning to the highest level of education are particularly encouraged to apply.

A full-time Macquarie University Research Excellence Scholarship (MQRES) is now available in the electronics department to undertake a project in collaboration with Agilent Technologies, Wiakato University, and international GaN foundries. Gallium nitride transistors appear as a viable technology for radio communications. However, they are anomalies characteristics that are not well modelled or account in the design of circuits. This project aims to develop new tools for circuit design and communication for the next generation of applications. This will involve the exploration of non-linear behaviour of GaN transistors in collaboration with Agilent Technologies, CA.

MQRES scholarships are available to students nationally and internationally. Applicants must have completed the equivalent qualifications research in a discipline relevant to a degree in Australia with first class honours, as a master’s thesis with a component.

The allowance is currently MQRES $ 20,007 p.a. Exonérées tax (2008). Successful applicants are also eligible for a maximum merit top $ 5000, and new opportunities to engage in academic work showing casual. The occupation is 3.5 years full-time, subject to satisfactory progress, with tuition to fund scholarships occupation. Additional support for the project costs and conference travel will also be available to the Department.
