Postdoctoral position in 4D scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D STEM) of multifunctional oxide materials.
Announcement date: 28 November 2022Description
Research project includes the characterization of advanced multifunctional oxide materials such
as ferroelectrics, piezoelectric, multiferroics by aberration corrected 4D STEM. The work will be
integrated in many national and international research projects and European integrations.
Requirements
Applicants should have a strong background in materials science. Preference will be given to
applicants with demonstrated experience in TEM, HRTEM and aberration corrected STEM,
particularly with expertise in 4D STEM techniques. Experience with EELS and EDXS techniques
and programming in Python is highly desirable.
We are looking for a self-motivated candidate who has successfully completed Ph.D. study in
physics, chemistry or materials sciences. Applicants should have excellent written and oral
communication skills in English, and a strong publication record. The successful candidate will
join an interdisciplinary team of scientists from the fields of materials science, simulations, and
computations, and will actively participate in the ongoing research activities of the laboratory.
The post represents an excellent opportunity for an individual to develop his/her career and
interact with leading scientists.
Facilities at Jozef Stefan Institute (JSI) include a new state-of-the-art probe aberration corrected
X-FEG/Monochromator STEM (Thermo Fisher Spectra 300) equipped with 4D STEM, pixelate
detector EMPAD (Thermoscientific), DualEELS (Gatan Continuum S/1077 GIF) and Super-X EDS
system. Conventional TEMs and FIB are also available. Aberration corrected cold-FEG STEM (JEOL
ARM 200 CF) with 4D STEM, pixelate detector MERLIN (Quantum detectors) is accessible at the
nearby institute.
