Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d)
Ultrafast Soft-X-Ray Spectroscopy of Elementary Chemical ReactionsIhre Aufgaben
Job profile:The main objective of our research effort is the elucidation of ultrafast elementary charge transfer processes in solution. Currently we use and further develop state-of-the-art techniques to determine the structural dynamics of reactive prototypical molecular donor-acceptor complexes, undergoing electron transfer, proton transfer and proton-coupled-electron transfer, which function as model systems for processes as diverse as electronic charge flow, aqueous proton transport or energy conversion.
The candidate will work on the development and application of novel transient soft-x-ray spectroscopic techniques with high time resolution. This will include the application of soft-x-rays with high-order harmonic radiation generated with a new table-top state-of-the-art femtosecond laser system for time-resolved x-ray spectroscopies based on an optical pump/x-ray probe approach. Further development of novel liquid jet technologies for sample delivery will also be pursued.
Ihre Qualifikation
Requirements:The successful candidate has a PhD in physics or chemistry with above average marks. The candidate has experience in at least one of the following fields: optical spectroscopy, soft-x-ray-spectroscopy, ultrafast optics and spectroscopy.
Ihre Vorteile
Offer:The researcher position is available immediately and limited to 2 years. The payment is according to the German TVöD salary scheme for scientists in public research institutions.
The candidates will be members of a research team consisting of senior scientists, postdocs, and Ph. D. students.
Über uns
The Max-Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) conducts basic research in the field of nonlinear optics and ultrafast dynamics arising from the interaction of light with matter and pursues applications that emerge from this research. It develops and uses ultrafast and ultra-intense lasers and laser-driven short-pulse light sources in a broad spectral range in combination with methods of nonlinear spectroscopy. The spectral range includes in particular XUV radiation and soft x-rays, where experiments at in-house sources are complemented with the use of accelerator driven sources such as free electron x-ray lasers.With its research, MBI fulfills a national mission and is an integral part of the international scientific community.
