Job Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen.

About the Position

The successful candidate will be working within the Nanostructure group, led by Associate Professor Kirsten M. Ø. Jensen, and will be involved in research and teaching activities. The postdoc's duties will include conducting independent and creative research, demonstrating scientific productivity, and showing good inter-personal and communication skills.

Research Focus

The position is focused on materials chemistry with a strong emphasis on the use of X-ray scattering methods for characterization of atomic structure, as well as understanding material synthesis pathways. The successful candidate will be working on two main projects:

  1. Ultrafast X-ray scattering at synchrotron and XFEL sources to follow atomic scale structural changes taking place during chemical synthesis of nanoparticles.
  2. Size/structure relations and formation mechanisms for disordered oxide nanomaterials and high entropy materials for electrocatalysis.
Requirements

To be considered, applicants must have a PhD degree in experimental chemistry, nanoscience, physics, or a similar field with experience in material synthesis. Extensive experience in synchrotron, neutron or XFEL experiments is required, including experience in advanced modelling of scattering or spectroscopy data. Experience with total scattering and Pair Distribution Function analysis is considered an advantage.

What We Offer

The University of Copenhagen offers a dynamic and international working environment with a diverse and inclusive community. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with a talented team of researchers and contribute to cutting-edge research in materials chemistry.

How to Apply

To apply, please submit your application electronically, including a motivation/cover letter, curriculum vitae, complete publication list, separate reprints of 3 particularly relevant papers, and reference letters (if available). The deadline for applications is 25 September 2024, 23:59 GMT +2.
