AMOLF invites applications for a four-year PhD position in optical metasurfaces controlling quantum electron wavepackets , based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, with a planned start date of 1 December 2026. The project investigates fundamental interactions between high-energy electrons and extreme optical fields in a scanning electron microscope. Using photon-induced near-field electron microscopy (PINEM), the research will explore how electrons exchange energy with intense, strongly confined lig...
