About this position

Postdoctoral position at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany for spectro-microscopy studies of complex processes in thermal catalysis and electrochemistry.

The position is in the Spectro-Microscopy group at the Department of Interface Science, headed by Prof. Beatriz Roldán Cuenya. The project uses advanced LEEM/PEEM, XPS, NEXAFS, LEED, and related surface-science methods at the SMART beamline at BESSY-II to study catalytic and electrochemical processes in real time and in situ.

Research topics mentioned include CO2 hydrogenation, CO2RR, dry methane reforming, OER, and ammonia synthesis. Candidate can choose a main project in either thermal catalysis or electrocatalysis, and will also contribute to collaborative projects and support external users at the beamline.

Eligibility: PhD in Chemistry, Physics, or Physical Chemistry; preferably with specialization in electrochemistry, thermal catalysis, or surface science. Strong publication record, experience with UHV or electrochemistry experiments, ability to work independently, teamwork, and excellent English are required. Synchrotron experience is preferred but not mandatory.

Funding/contract: Postdoctoral appointment initially for 1 year, extendable up to 3 years. No stipend amount is stated.

How to apply: Apply via the online application portal as soon as possible. Upload a CV, publication list, and the names and email addresses of three referees. Applications are accepted until the position is filled.
