Postdoctoral Researcher in Ultrafast Nanoscience

3 weeks ago


Umeå, Västerbotten, Sweden Umeå University Full time

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our dynamic team at Umeå University. The Ultrafast Nanoscience Group research focus is the study of light-matter interactions at the nanoscale. Our group utilizes frequency- and time-resolved (magneto-)optical spectroscopy, finite-element computational methods, and bottom-up/top-down nanofabrication techniques to study light-driven charge, spin, and lattice dynamics in nano- and meta-materials.

The successful candidate will work with a newly established pump-probe system to generate sub-5 fs light pulses, which will be used to excite and probe plasmons in magnetic nanostructures. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will have the opportunity to work in a creative and ambitious international environment with many external collaborations and opportunities to present your research at international meetings and conferences.

Qualifications
To be eligible, you must have completed a doctoral degree or a foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctoral degree. Priority will be given to candidates who completed their doctoral degree within the last three years, although special reasons may also be considered. As a postdoctoral fellow, you must have taken relevant courses in teaching and learning in higher education if you will be teaching or supervising.

We are looking for a candidate who is passionate about developing as an individual scientist and a research team member. Experience in ultrafast and nonlinear optics, pump-probe spectroscopy, and/or development of laser-based spectroscopic systems is highly desirable. Fluency in written and oral English is essential.
