About the job.
To be a highly productive, ambitious and collaborative member of the Polarisation-driven surface chemistry on free-standing ferroelectrics research project.
The post holder will contribute to the design and delivery of advanced experimental research, with a focus on in-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) of functional oxide materials under controlled environmental conditions (e.g., gas and temperature).
The role will investigate how ferroelectric polarisation couples with surface chemistry and external stimuli (e.g. gas, temperature, and electric fields) using electron microscopy and correlative techniques.
This position provides an exciting opportunity to develop expertise and independence in advanced in-situ TEM methods, working within a collaborative UK–Ireland partnership and contributing to challenges in clean energy and sustainable materials.
The post holder will contribute to independent research, supervision, planning, collaborations, and outreach.
The post holder will benefit from:
