Job Description & How to Apply Below
HFML-FELIX builds on a strong background in advanced spectroscopy in high magnetic fields and with intense infrared/THz radiation.
As an Associate or Full Professor of Science of High Magnetic Fields, you will develop your research programme and complement the institute’s research lines on correlated electron systems, magnetism, topological matter, 2D materials, semiconductors and their nanostructures, nanomaterials, and soft condensed matter. In your research you will use the extreme conditions created by the high magnetic fields (above 20 Tesla) to study, control and manipulate molecules and/or materials.
Researchers at HFML-FELIX use an array of experimental techniques in high magnetic fields, such as magneto-transport, magneto-optics, magnetisation and torque magnetometry, dilatometry, and infrared and ultrafast laser spectroscopy, to perform groundbreaking research on condensed matter systems and beyond. We will encourage you to develop new experimental techniques within your research line to further explore the unique possibilities of our facility, which will also strengthen our user programme.
Strong collaborations exist with experimental and theoretical groups within the Institute for Molecules and Materials, which covers a broad spectrum of research topics in biochemistry, organic chemistry, condensed matter and molecular physics. In your role, you will actively work on the acquisition of external funding and build a research group comprising postdoctoral research associates, PhD and undergraduate project students and, possibly, technicians.
As an Associate or Full Professor, you will lead an independent research group with an internationally competitive research programme that aligns with and enhances the capabilities of HFML-FELIX, acquire research funding, possibly in collaboration with external academic and/or industrial partners, and supervise and guide PhD candidates and scientific staff. Your teaching activities will be part of the Educational Institutes for Physics and Astronomy.
Within your field of expertise, you will actively contribute to our institute's user programme and collaborate with researchers within HFML-FELIX, the national HFML-FELIX partnership, as well as with national and international user groups.
The open and safe environment at Radboud University is extremely inspiring. I’ve felt totally at home here for over twenty years. Hans de Kroon Professor at the Faculty of Science
Does this sound like you? We seek an enthusiastic scientist with a convincing track record and the potential to conduct research with high magnetic fields and initiate a novel, internationally recognised research area within HFML-FELIX.
You are an internationally acknowledged researcher with a PhD degree in physics or a related discipline, who knows how to combine research with inspirational teaching and organisational tasks, and shows clear leadership.
You are a researcher who participates in projects of a multidisciplinary nature and who is willing take part in the shared responsibilities for the user programme of HFML-FELIX, including the development of new experimental techniques.
You are a supervisor with experience in the guidance of undergraduate and graduate students and have the potential to mentor postdoctoral researchers and other scientific staff.
You have shown competence in acquiring external funding for your research. You are willing to collaborate and represent our institute in…
