KTH Royal Institute of Technology, School of Engineering Sciences
Nuclear Science and Engineering (NSE) at the Department of Physics seeks an ambitious, motivated, structured, and collaborative postdoc to join the nuclear fuel materials team. The project will study fission product kinetics by ion implantation of advanced nuclear fuel (Uranium Nitride). It is supported by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority and in collaboration with Westinghouse and Uppsala University. The role includes leading research efforts using experimental and computational methods to evaluate fission product diffusion kinetics and the formation of the high burnup structure (HBS) in uranium nitride.
Qualifications
Requirements
- A doctoral degree or an equivalent foreign degree obtained by the time the employment decision is made.
- PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Materials Science, Engineering Mechanics or a related field.
Preferred qualifications
- Doctoral degree or equivalent foreign degree obtained within the last three years prior to the application deadline.
- Hands‑on experience with sintering, powder metallurgy and characterization techniques.
