Job description

• The work will involve synthesis and growth of single crystal samples, as well as their characterization with X-ray diffraction
• The samples will be further characteried with optical spectroscopy experiments, as well as magnetothermodynamic, magnetomechanical and magnetoacoustic measurements at mK-temperatures and high magnetic fields, using equipment available in our laboratory 
• The research will culminate in neutron scattering, ultra-high-field, and muon spin rotation studies at state of the art large-scale user facilities in Switzerland, France, Germany, UK, Japan and the USA
• Data analysis and modeling will be done in collaboration with research groups that specialize in theoretical and numerical calculations

Profile

• The successful candidate is expected to be actively involved in every phase of the project and to take the lead whenever possible
• No prior experience in neutron scattering is required, but a solid background in laboratory work and analysis of experimental data is a must
• Since the project is based around rather complex concepts in modern physics, a solid theoretical background in quantum mechanics, statistical physics and quantum solid state physics is absolutely essential
• Good computer skills are a plus

Workplace

We offer

• Your job with impact: Become part of ETH Zurich, which not only supports your professional development, but also actively contributes to positive change in society
• You can expect numerous benefits, such as public transport season tickets and car sharing, a wide range of sports offered by the ASVZ, childcare and attractive pension benefits
