Opportunity summary
Are you driven to observe catalysts in action—atom by atom, in real time, under realistic conditions? Do you want to use state-of-the-art electron microscopy to answer fundamental questions at the frontier between catalysis, chemical, materials and quantum sciences? We are recruiting Postdocs to explore catalytic materials using state-of-the-art operando, atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
Why join VISION? At VISION, you will join a highly collaborative, international, and interdisciplinary research environment where advanced electron microscopy and spectroscopy, microfabricated reactors, catalysis, cluster science, and computational modelling come together to reveal how catalysts function at the atomic scale.
This is an exceptional opportunity for ambitious researchers who want to shape the frontier of “live” electron microscopy and wants to build foundation for independent academic or corporate research career. Your Impact Catalysts are metastable nanomaterials. Their active surface sites dynamically restructure during adsorption and reaction of molecules.
However, many of these processes remain hidden because they occur at the atomic scale and in real time1 …
