Postdoctoral Researcher in Materials Chemistry and X-ray Scattering
1 month ago
The Department of Chemistry at the University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our research group in materials chemistry and x-ray scattering. The successful candidate will work on two exciting projects, focusing on the use of x-ray scattering methods for characterization of atomic structure and understanding material synthesis pathways.
Project 1: Ultrafast X-ray Scattering
The first project will involve the use of ultrafast x-ray scattering at synchrotron and XFEL sources to study atomic scale structural changes during chemical synthesis of nanoparticles. The candidate will aim to perform ultrafast time-resolved Pair Distribution Function experiments to elucidate the formation mechanism of nanoparticles and understand how precursor clusters in solution dissociate and nucleate to form nanoparticles.
Project 2: Size/Structure Relations and Formation Mechanisms
The second project will focus on size/structure relations and formation mechanisms for disordered oxide nanomaterials and high entropy materials for electrocatalysis. The candidate will use synchrotron techniques, including x-ray total scattering and x-ray spectroscopy, to elucidate the formation pathways for materials using in situ synchrotron studies and characterize their electrocatalytic properties through operando experiments.
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 modeling of scattering or spectroscopy data. Experience with total scattering and Pair Distribution Function analysis is an advantage.
What We Offer
The University of Copenhagen offers a dynamic and international research environment, with opportunities for collaboration and professional development. The successful candidate will work within our international, cross-disciplinary group and will co-supervise students and other group members. The candidate must have excellent English communication skills and the ability to write scientific papers at a high level.
How to Apply
The application, in English, must be submitted electronically by clicking APPLY NOW below. Please include a motivation/cover letter, separate reprints of 3 particularly relevant papers, reference letters (if available), and diplomas (Master and PhD degree or equivalent). The deadline for applications is 25 September 2024, 23:59 GMT +2.
