About this position
RIKEN is recruiting a Special Research Fellow in the Emergent Functional Magnetic Materials Research Unit at the Emergent Matter Science Research Center in Wako, Saitama, Japan.
The position is centered on condensed matter physics, magnetism, superconductivity, strongly correlated systems, and materials science, with a strong emphasis on the synthesis and characterization of topological magnetic materials. The lab develops intermetallic compounds and alloys using single crystal growth and rapid quenching, then studies magnetic structure and topological properties using magnetic measurements, transport measurements, scanning probe microscopy, and neutron scattering.
This is a fixed-term postdoctoral-equivalent research position with one opening. The appointment is initially for one year and may be renewed for up to five years in total, subject to evaluation and institutional conditions. The salary is annualized and starts at about 4 million yen, with commuting and housing allowances and social insurance provided.
Eligibility requires a PhD in experimental condensed matter physics, or expected completion by the start date. Candidates who earned their doctorate within the last five years are especially noted as suitable. The work location is Wako City, Saitama Prefecture, Japan.
The application deadline is 2027-06-25, and applications are accepted until that date or until a suitable candidate is found. Apply through the official RIKEN recruitment page and submit the required electronic documents, including a resume and list of achievements.
