Post-Doctoral Position in Nanoscience: Synchrotron SOLEIL, a French national synchrotron facility, is seeking a motivated post-doctoral researcher to join the TEMPO beamline team as part of the European project RIANA. This 24-month position focuses on studying the electronic properties of 2D nanomaterials using photoemission spectroscopy.
Post-Doctoral Position in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
Designation: Post-Doctoral Researcher
Research Area: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
Location: Synchrotron SOLEIL, Paris-Saclay cluster, France
Eligibility/Qualification:
- PhD in Physics, Material Science, Physical Chemistry, or a related field.
- Research experience in X-ray and/or electron spectroscopy.
- Expertise in photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is highly desirable.
- Strong background in solid state physics.
- Knowledge of ultrahigh vacuum techniques.
- Excellent teamwork skills.
- Fluency in spoken and written English; knowledge of French is not mandatory.
Job Description: The successful candidate will:
- Conduct research on the TEMPO beamline using XPS and ARPES to study the properties of 2D nanomaterials, specifically Cu-Te films on semiconductor substrates.
