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.
