Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Quantum Materials | Post-Doc (f/m/d, Nr. 617-25)

Job Summary

This Postdoctoral Researcher role, based in Duisburg within the Research Center Future Energy Materials and Systems, focuses on developing a non-destructive sensor principle to detect hydrogen uptake in materials, crucial for industrial safety and cost-efficiency, particularly concerning steel embrittlement. The role involves independent research, specifically charging model materials with hydrogen and monitoring electronic changes using Seebeck measurements and Terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopy. The successful candidate will hold an above-average university degree and a doctorate in physics or a comparable subject, specializing in THz spectroscopy. Key tasks also include assisting with the supervision of doctoral candidates and students. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge materials science within the dynamic Research Alliance Ruhr environment.
