Duration of employment

24 months

Working time

39 hours 50 minutes (100 %)

Your main tasks

Research activities in the Disch group are centered on the structure, magnetism, and dynamics in functional nanoscale materials. In this broad context, our field of study comprises key aspects of both soft condensed matter research, such as interactions in colloidal dispersions and self-organization, and hard condensed matter research, including nanoscale magnetism, magnetization dynamics, and the structural characterization of (nano)crystalline materials.

We are pleased to announce the opening of a postdoc position to join our team at the University of Duisburg-Essen. We are seeking a highly motivated researcher with a background in X-ray and/or neutron scattering methods to investigate the structural and magnetic properties of nanostructured electrode materials (battery materials, catalysis) using in-situ and operando total scattering techniques. The project will include scattering experiments at international large-scale research facilities.

The community of researchers studying nanoscale phenomena in the Ruhr region belongs to the best in Germany, and it is expected that the position holder will benefit from numerous possibilities for collaboration, for example through the Center for Nanointegration in Duisburg-Essen CENIDE or the DFG funded Collaborative Research Center TRR 270.

Your profile

  • A PhD degree in Inorganic or Physical Chemistry, Condensed Matter Physics, or a related field
  • A background in X-ray or neutron scattering techniques applied to nanoscale materials or colloids, preferably with experience in:
    • Total scattering and PDF analysis
    • In-situ/operando techniques
  • Experience with experiment design, data collection, analysis, and interpretation; Experience in data management and application of the FAIR principles
  • Professional communication skills in oral and written English.
  • A high degree of independence, while also encouraging interaction with colleagues

 

We offer you

  • an active interdisciplinary research environment between chemistry, physics and materials science
  • access to and training on state-of-the art equipment
  • a pleasant working atmosphere in a dynamic team
  • a broad range of further education and training opportunities
