Research Collaborator - Hetero-Epitaxial Moirés and Uniaxially Strained Quantum Materials
Job Vacancy
Research Field: Physics
Sub Research:
Job Summary
We are currently accepting applications for the above mentioned position. This is a unique opportunity for junior researchers with a recent PhD degree in Physics or related fields to join one of DIPC’s high-profile research teams.
Job Description & Benefits
Description:
We are seeking a postdoc to study electronic and transport properties of hetero-epitaxial moiré superlattices and quantum materials under uniaxial strain by using Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES), Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and magneto-transport. The ideal candidate should have extensive experience in ARPES. Transport and STM experience would be advantageous.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
The candidates will conduct the ARPES and/or STM, magnetization, specific heat and magneto-transport studies of quantum materials under uniaxial strain at user facilities and collaborating groups and contribute to the complementary within the research program of the group.
The position will involve travel and possible extended stays at collaborating institutions and/or user facilities. The position is for 2-3 years, starting as soon as possible.
Desired background & competences
An excellent understanding of the physics of strongly correlated materials and transport properties of quantum materials is essential.
Experience with lab- and synchrotron-based ARPES experiments. STM expertise and experience on Quantum Design PPMS is advantageous
Experience in ARPES, MBE and/or STM.
Proven abilities for disseminating research by writing papers and giving academic talks.
Enjoys teamwork and an interdisciplinary environment.
