Postdoc in Lanthanide Organometallics for Molecular Magnets

CNRS; France; Sur place; EUR 36 000 - 47 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

The Institut des Sciences Chimiques de Rennes (ISCR) under CNRS invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher in lanthanide organometallic chemistry. The project focuses on designing lanthanide-based compounds with high-performance magnetic and optical properties, including CPL and MChD, with collaboration across spectroscopy and theory.

English proficiency required. Responsibilities include synthesis, crystallization, magnetic and spectroscopic studies, and dissemination through

Qualifications

• PhD in inorganic, molecular, or materials chemistry.
• In-depth knowledge of lanthanide organometallic chemistry.
• Knowledge of crystallization and crystal growth techniques.
• Experience with SQUID/PPMS magnetometry.
• Fluency in written and spoken English.

Responsabilités

• Synthesis of organometallic precursors of lanthanide ions.
• Development of organometallic lanthanide complexes involving chiral paracyclophane-type ligands.
• Crystallization and crystal growth of the synthesized systems.
• Characterization using standard analytical techniques.
• Magnetic investigation through DC and AC measurements using a SQUID/PPMS magnetometer.
• Spectroscopic investigations (optical and chiroptical), including natural circular dichroism and luminescence.
• Writing scientific publications based on the results obtained.
