A post-doctoral position related to ESTEEM3 is currently open at the University of Cadiz in Analytical Scanning-Transmission Electron Microscopy.

Deadline for applications: 30th September 2021. 

 

 

 

Job description 

The candidate will join the Structure and Chemistry of Nanomaterials Group at the University of Cádiz and will work in the framework of the ESTEEM3 European Project.

The candidate will focus on the implementation of quantitative techniques (QHR-HAADF, zeta-factor methods in XEDS) to improve the accuracy/precision in the analysis of oxide-type materials as well as nanomaterials involving light elements.

Experiments combining HAADF tomography with analytical techniques will also be part of the work. UCA also intends to improve, at least at a qualitative level, the 3D analysis of nanomaterials using Analytical Electron Tomography techniques.

Profile

The position is opened to candidates with a strong background in the use of Analytical STEM techniques, particularly STEM-XEDS, for the compositional analysis of nanostructured materials and HAADF tomography with analytical techniques.

Experience in the use of Aberration-Corrected microscopes will also be considered.
