Fully Funded PhD in Pulse EPR & Spin Dynamics (Zurich)

Immigration Policy Lab; Zürich; In loco; CHF 60.000 - 75.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

ETH Zurich invites applications for a Doctoral Researcher in Pulse EPR in the Spin Dynamics and Hyperpolarisation group, fully funded by an SNSF Starting Grant. The position is 100%, Zurich, fixed-term, with work on novel pulse sequences and applications to inorganic chemistry, catalysis, and organic radicals.

The selected candidate will operate a state-of-the-art pulse EPR spectrometer, perform spin-dynamics simulations, and potentially engage in synthesis or quantum-chemical calculations.

Competenze

• Master's degree in (physical) chemistry or a related field by the start of the position.
• Research experience in an advanced magnetic resonance technique (EPR, solid-state NMR, or similar).
• A good understanding of the physics underlying magnetic resonance is expected.

Mansioni

• Work with a state-of-the-art pulse EPR spectrometer with arbitrary phase and amplitude control.
• Develop new pulse sequences with improved sensitivity and higher information content, and apply them to challenging systems.
• Depending on background, may include chemical synthesis and catalysis, as well as quantum-chemical calculations.
