Beschrijving

Work Activities:

Did you know high-energy electrons can serve as efficient sources of optical excitation of matter? Our group has developed cathodoluminescence microscopy, in which we use 1-30 keV electrons in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to excite nanomaterials.

The oscillating electric field carried by the electron serves as a broadband (0-30 eV) excitation source with 5 nm spatial and 5 fs temporal resolution.

This enables us to study excitations and localized modes of plasmons, 2D semiconductors and a wide range of optical metamaterials.

We study excitation dynamics through time-resolved spectroscopy, correlative measurements, holography and perform 3D tomography of complex geometries.

We have vacancies for PhD students and postdoc in all of these topics.

Qualifications:

You have a degree in physics or related field, and have strong social, organizational and communication skills.

Work environment:

Our group is part of AMOLFs Nanophotonics and Light Management in new Photovoltaic Materials research centers that are composed of 8 research groups (50 PhD students and postdocs) that share a state-of-the-art cleanroom for nanofabrication and characterization and many other facilities.

Working conditions:

The working atmosphere at the institute is largely determined by young, enthusiastic, mostly foreign employees. Communication is informal and runs through short lines of communication.
The position is intended as fulltime (40 hours / week, 12 months / year) appointment in the service of the Netherlands Foundation of Scientific Research Institutes (NWO-I) for the duration of four years
The starting salary is 2.781 Euro's gross per month and a range of employment benefits.
After successful completion of the PhD research a PhD degree will be granted at a Dutch University.
Several courses are offered, specially developed for PhDstudents.
