TU Delft
An application made for this job — a tailored resume and cover letter that speak straight to the posting.
Job summary
TU Delft’s Curious Beams Lab seeks a postdoctoral researcher to lead instrumentation development for BEAMSurf, a project on diffractive atomic-scale surface imaging with backscattered electrons. You will own the instrument from design through fabrication and experimental demonstration, working with PhD candidates and the PI to advance high-resolution diffraction data.
The role spans electron-optical design, electromagnetic simulations, MEMS and nanofabrication, vacuum systems, and detector
Qualifications
- PhD in physics, applied physics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, or a closely related field.
- Strong background in experimental physics, electron optics, or electron microscopy.
- Experience designing, building or characterising experimental systems.
- Excellent English communication and ability to work in a team.
Responsibilities
- Lead instrumentation development from electron-optical design to fabrication and integration.
- Coordinate fabrication and integration of components and oversee commissioning and optimization.
- Collaborate with PhD candidates and PI to connect measurements with imaging methods.
- Support MEMS, vacuum, and detector integration during experiments.
