Job description:
The ESRF, the European Synchrotron, is an international research facility based in Grenoble, France. Thanks to high-level, innovative engineering and cutting-edge vision, the ESRF is recognised as one of the top research institutions worldwide, welcoming more than 6 500 scientists every year in fields such as biology, medicine, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, cultural heritage, materials and surface science, and physics. The ESRF is supported by 21 countries and employs 600 staff.

We are currently seeking to recruit a:


Post-doctoral Fellow
for the new High Pressure Crystallography beamline ID15B

Time-limited position
ref. PDID15B-1

JOB DESCRIPTION


You will participate in ongoing in-house research programmes, the operation of the beamline, providing support to external users as local contact, and develop your own research programme.

The experimental station ID15B, replacing ID09A, is currently under construction. It will become one of the most advanced beamlines for structural investigations at high pressures. A well-equipped sample preparation laboratory, a Raman system and facilities for low and high temperature measurements and for laser annealing are available. Research is focused on the accurate determination of structural parameters at high pressures using angle-dispersive single crystal and powder diffraction with a state-of-the-art area detector.You will be encouraged and supported to develop your own research, which should exploit the exceptional beamline capabilities.
Further information may be obtained from Michael Hanfland (tel.: +33 (0)4 76 88 26 88, email: hanfland@esrf.fr).
