Job Description

We are seeking applicants for a 2-year postdoc in Ultrafast X-ray probes of Quantum Materials to join us at the Department of Physics and Astronomy.


Starting Date and Period


The position is for 2 years and is available from August 1st or as soon as possible hereafter. There is the possibility of extension for up to more two years.


Job description


We are looking for a candidate to lead our X-FEL and synchrotron-based experiments to study the dynamics of light-induced phase transitions on atomic and nanoscopic length-scales driven by optical and phononic excitation.

The focus will be on understanding how different excitation methods generate polarons and correlated materials in the cuprates and other quantum materials, building on our recent results in the vanadium dioxide (see Johnson et al. Nature Physics 20, 970 (2024)).

You will also work on expanding our coherent imaging methodology t...
