Thank you in advance for your help and kind regards. Olav Schiemann (on behalf of the organizing committee)

Subject: Postdoc Position (f/m/d) - Electron Paramagnetic Resonance on a Chip

Dear All,

we are looking for a talented postdoc who wants to advance the development of the EPR-on-a-Chip technology and its application in DNP within the BMBF project EPRoC total funding 6.6M, coordination HZB). The description of the position and a link for application can be found here:

Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie (HZB) is one of the leading research centres in Germany in the fields of renewable energy, material science and quantum information. At HZB's Berlin Joint Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Lab (BeJEL) we are searching for a highly motivated postdoctoral scientist to conduct research within the BMBF funded project Electron Paramagnetic Resonance on a Chip (EPRoC). EPRoC is a unique new spectroscopic tool with a huge potential in operando radical spectroscopy due to the fact that the EPR spectrometer is confined to a small silicon chip and can be applied using a permanent magnet. The main goal of the project is to develop a miniaturised EPR setup for operando investigation of growth processes of solar cell materials and the fundamental mechanisms of electrochemical and catalytic reactions. There are two PhD positions within the EPRoC project, which will be supervised by the candidate.

Tasks:
  • Construction of a setup for EPRoC experiments in a vacuum deposition chamber
  • Performing EPRoC measurements during the growth of organic and inorganic layers
  • Construction of an electrochemical cell for operando EPR measurements
  • Performing EPRoC experiments directly at the XES beamline of BESSY II
  • Project management of the BMBF project EPRoC
Requirements:
  • PhD degree in experimental physics, chemistry, materials science, engineering or related field
  • High motivation to work in a large team on a demanding research project
  • Experience in EPR spectroscopy and designing and constructing experimental setups
  • Experience in project management and supervising students

Subject: PhD position with NV centres in diamond at HZB in Berlin

Dear colleagues and friends,

we are searching for a highly motivated PhD candidate within the DFG funded project Quantum many body interactions in a two dimensional solid state system. The goal is to create and use single spins in diamond (nitrogen vacancy centres, shortly NV) to control nanoscale two dimensional (2D) arrays of nuclear spins, with the final goal being the realisation of a solid state quantum simulator. The description of the position and a link for application can be found here:
