Soft X-ray Reflection Microscopy Postdoctoral Fellow

The Superior Mild Supply Division at Lawrence Berkeley Nationwide Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) is in search of a Smooth X-ray Reflection Microscopy Postdoctoral Fellow. The target of this postdoctoral place is to develop reflection microscopy of condensed matter supplies utilizing gentle x-rays. You may be answerable for the event, implementation and testing of the approach with the objective of implementing a newly developed full-frame technique referred to as randomized probe imaging (RPI) in reflection.

The Superior Mild Supply is a U.S. Division of Power (DOE) Workplace of Science nationwide scientific consumer facility whose wonderful scientific repute, professional employees, and capabilities within the gentle x-ray, laborious x-ray, and infrared regimes appeal to almost 1,700 tutorial and industrial customers annually in disciplines spanning bodily, chemical, supplies, organic, power, and Earth sciences. It’s one among 5 Berkeley Lab consumer amenities that serve a mixed 11,000 customers yearly. The ALS has been a worldwide chief in gentle x-ray science for greater than twenty years and is presently present process a large-scale improve (ALS-U) that may endow the power with state-of-the-art x-ray capabilities. It is an thrilling time to hitch our workforce!
