Working with us / Research Staff

Postdoctoral Research Associate at SuperESCA:
Deadline: 15 July 2023

Ref:
DB/23/16

_Background_

_Beamline / Project / Activity description_
The SuperESCA beamline provides linearly polarized photons in the eV energy range with high flux and high energy resolution.

The beamline houses an experimental station where high resolution photoemission and absorption spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD) measurements are carried out routinely.

The advanced instrumentation of SuperESCA enables fast-XPS measurements to be performed at the state-of-the-art, providing experimental access to a wealth of dynamic processes occurring on surfaces.

Research projects at SuperESCA focus on the electronic and chemical properties of surfaces and nanostructures, analyses of surface reactions in real-time and determination of the atomic structure of surfaces, interfaces and thin films, in particular 2D materials.

These activities are performed by exploiting the capabilities presently offered by the SuperESCA beamline and by further developing its instrumentation in order to accomplish the experimental needs.

_Job description_

_Qualifications_
A background in ultra-high-vacuum methods for surface analysis, sample surface preparation, film and nanostructures growth is required. A track record in surface science is expected.

Proven experience in the at least two of the following techniques is required: X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, angle-resolved photoemission, photoelectron diffraction and absorption spectroscopy.

The following qualifications will be considered as additional assets:

Previous participation in experiments at synchrotron radiation facilities
Experience in the construction of scientific equipment relevant to UHV systems or for synchrotron beamlines
Programming skills in LabView and Igor Pro, with demonstrated ability in data processing

Good time management skills and ability to prioritize are expected, together with the ability to interact with the facility staff and international users at all levels and to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team.

Good oral and written communication skills in English are essential.
