Postdoctoral Research Associate/Fellow in Ultrafast Chemical Dynamics

£32.08k - £47.39k per annum

University of Nottingham

Nottingham, United Kingdom

GBP 32,080 - 47,389 per year

We are seeking an ambitious and creative experimental physical scientist to join our group as a founding member of the UKRI-funded Future Leaders Fellowship project ‘Transition State Imaging’. The project will build an Anion Reaction Microscope, a novel anion spectrometer for time-resolved Coulomb explosion imaging experiments in our group’s laboratory.

This instrument will generate a beam of mass-selected molecular and/or cluster anions and will image the ultrafast nuclear dynamics triggered by photodetachment of the excess electron, using a new high-repetition rate Ytterbium laser system. These unique capabilities will advance our fundamental understanding of chemical reactivity by extending the time-resolved Coulomb explosion imaging technique beyond unimolecular photochemistry and towards new chemical contexts, e.g. bi-molecular reactions, solvent dynamics, and electron-induced chemistry.

Specifically, the candidate will be involved in:

  • Design and commissioning of the anion reaction microscope;
  • Development of femtosecond laser beamlines;
  • Scientific investigations into nuclear dynamics of photodetachment from prototypical anions.

The candidate must have (or be about to) complete a PhD in in physical chemistry, chemical physics, atomic, molecular and optical physics, or a closely related discipline.– with demonstratable expertise in one or more of the following areas: mass spectrometry techniques, ultrafast spectroscopy, charged particle detection/imaging, and/or scientific instrument development.
