DESY, with more than 2900 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.
With the storage ring PETRA III and the Free-Electron-Laser FLASH, DESY offers a unique combination of photon sources to the scientific community. PETRA III, one of the most brilliant hard X- ray facilities worldwide, provides a total of 25 beamlines for experiments utilizing the extreme source brilliance. P65 is open for international user groups since 2016. It is an undulator beamline dedicated to standard X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) with an emphasis on in-situ/operando experiments in catalysis and battery research. We are currently searching for a scientist who supports the beamline team in the user support and further development and implementation of innovative instrumentation at this beamline.
About your role:
- Support external user groups at the beamline
- Further develop innovative instrumentation and sample environments for highly automated operando experiments in collaboration with external groups
- Support the planning, design and installation of a XAFS beamline at the future storage ring PETRA IV
- Perform advanced XAFS experiments making use of the specific beamline capabilities
- Develop own independent research and participate in collaborative projects with external groups
Good reasons to join:
