Description du poste

Post-doctoral Fellow for the High Pressure Crystallography beamline ID15B

The European Synchrotron, the ESRF, is an international research centre based in Grenoble, France.

Supported by 19 countries, the ESRF is an equal opportunity employer and encourages diversity.

You will participate in ongoing research programmes, operate the beamline, support external users as a local contact, and develop your own research exploiting the capabilities of the ID15B beamline.

ID15B focuses on structural properties of solids at high pressures using diamond anvil cells, with facilities for low and high temperature measurements, laser annealing, and advanced diffraction techniques. Research topics include crystal structures of polyhydrids, molecular systems, and phase diagrams of quantum systems.
