Research Associate – Time-resolved studies of Quantum Materials using coherent x-rays

Brookhaven National Laboratory is committed to employee success and we believe that a comprehensive employee benefits program is an important and meaningful part of the compensation employees receive. Review more information at BNL | Benefits Program

Position Description

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate to develop and perform x-ray pump–probe experiments on quantum condensed matter systems. The successful candidate will design, build, and operate ultrafast laser amplifier setups integrated with x-ray instrumentation to investigate light-induced dynamics in solids. The postdoc will have opportunities to collaborate closely with scientists across disciplines at Brookhaven National Laboratory.

The position will be based at the Coherent Hard X-ray Scattering (CHX) beamline of the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), which is dedicated to probing nanometer-scale dynamics in materials using x-ray photon correlatio...
