The University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute invites applications for two three-year Postdoctoral Researcher positions in experimental nanophotonics and quantum optics in Professor Maiken H. Mikkelsen’s group. The group investigates how light and matter interact when light is confined to nanometre-scale volumes. Its work uses deterministically fabricated plasmonic nanocavities—metallic nanogaps formed around selected emitters—to access exceptionally strong light–matter interactions, inclu...

About this position

The Department of Physics at Aarhus University invites applications for a 2-year full-time postdoc project on probing nanoscale heterogeneity in ultrafast phase transitions. The project combines advanced soft X-ray imaging with X-ray Free Electron Lasers to study the dynamics of light-induced phase transitions at the nanoscale.

The successful candidate will work on experiments that bring together large-scale facilities and laboratory-based methods. In particular, the postdoc will lead XFEL and synchrotron experiments in soft X-ray imaging, prepare and characterise samples, and carry out laboratory experiments in time-resolved nonlinear optics. The position sits within the Department of Physics, Aarhus University, in a research environment that connects related departments and supports international researchers.

The project is centred on using a recently developed imaging method to reveal how ultrafast transformations unfold in complex materials. It offers a highly experimental research setting spanning X-ray science, laser-based methods, and quantum materials.

Funding details

2-year full-time postdoc position; salary and terms according to the Danish collective labour agreement, basic salary steps 4-8.

What's required

Applicants must have a PhD degree in Physics, Chemistry or a related field. Experience with ultrafast lasers and/or X-rays and/or quantum materials is required. The application must be in English and include a curriculum vitae, degree certificate, a complete list of publications, a statement of future research plans, information about research activities, a teaching portfolio, and verified information on previous teaching experience if any.
