Postdoctoral Fellow - Ultrafast Microwave-Induced Dynamics (80-100%)
The Quantum Photon Science Group seeks for a person, able to push technical and scientific boundaries. You will become part of a vibrant research environment, using state-of-the-art instrumentation to perform your own and collaborative research on microwave-driven magnetic insulators, based at the SLS synchrotron and the SwissFEL X-ray free-electron laser.
Your tasks will be:
- Experimental investigation (X-ray imaging and diffraction, as well as ferromagnetic resonance) of magnetic insulators, e.g. rare-earth quantum magnets and magnetic garnets, as part of the HERO ERC Synergy project
- Build-up of microwave capabilities for combination with optics at the SLS and microwave pump – X-Ray probe experiments at SwissFEL, including development of respective data analysis capabilities
Your profile
- PhD degree in physical sciences or electrical engineering
- Experienced in design, assembly and operation of microwave equipment
- Background in either magnetism, superconducting circuits or quantum optics
- Proficient with data analysis techniques
