About the Role
Investigate quantum correlations and many-body dynamics in quantum condensed matter systems using advanced coherent x-ray scattering techniques. Develop and perform synchrotron-based coherent x-ray and x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) experiments to probe nano-to-meso-scale equilibrium and nonequilibrium dynamics in strongly correlated materials.
Responsibilities
- Planning, performing, and analyzing coherent x-ray scattering experiments
- Disseminating research results in the form of conference presentations and publications
Requirements
- PhD in physics, materials science, physical chemistry or related field
- Sufficient understanding of the physics of quantum materials
- Experience in x-ray scattering or related techniques
- Demonstrated proficiency in programming language, such as Python
- Excellent written and oral communication skills including writing academic papers
- Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
- After obtaining a PhD, eligible candidates may not exceed a combined total of 5 years of relevant work experience as a post-doc and/or in an R&D position, excluding time associated with family planning, military service, illness or other life-changing events.
- Must be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Uncleared Personal Identity Verification (UPIV) credential.
- Subject to restrictions related to participation in Foreign Government Talent Recruitment Programs.
