About this position

The National Laboratory of the Rockies is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in quantum dot carrier dynamics within its Materials, Chemical, and Computational Sciences Directorate. The research is supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Basic Energy Sciences program and investigates the photodynamics of quantum dots and related nanostructured semiconductor systems.

The project will examine the fundamental processes governing photogenerated charge and spin separation and transfer. The researcher will use synthetic chemistry to vary quantum-dot composition and morphology, then apply spectroscopic characterization to determine how these structural changes influence primary photochemical events. Surface chemistry will also be studied and modified to control interfacial spin, charge, and energy transfer.

The work combines steady-state techniques, including UV–visible, infrared, Raman, photoluminescence, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, with time-resolved infrared, EPR, transient absorption, microwave, and terahertz measurements. The researcher will design experiments aimed at developing a deep understanding of photochemical systems rather than optimizing them solely for performance.

The postdoctoral researcher will participate in a cross-disciplinary team of physical chemists, inorganic chemists, materials scientists, and theorists. The team studies surfaces, interfaces, durability, and newly developed chemical architectures in a collaborative research environment supported by advanced facilities and partnerships across academia, industry, and national laboratories.
