Researcher in Nanoscience

resolution and nanosecond-scale temporal resolution. The successful candidate will further advance this platform to access new spatial and temporal regimes and will spearhead first-of-their-kind investigations of radiofrequency (MHz–GHz) nanoscale phenomena in systems relevant to microelectronics and quantum information science. Opportunities also exist for cross-platform studies integrating ultrafast TEM with ultrafast x-ray measurements at Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source and complementary optical spectroscopy. The position offers a highly collaborative environment with experts in electronic materials and devices, advanced characterization, nanofabrication, and theory/modeling. Key Responsibilities Perform transmission electron microscopy and spectroscopy, including in situ and ultrafast measurements Design and fabricate nanoscale electrical test structures (e.g., photolithography, e-beam lithography) Design, test, and characterize radiofrequency (RF) circuitry and measurement approaches Analyze and interpret data; publish and present high-impact research results Position Requirements Recent or soon-to-be-completed PhD (within the last 0-5 years) in materials science, physics, electrical engineering, or a related field Demonstrated experience with scanning/transmission electron microscopy (S/TEM) and/or diffraction (Lorentz S/TEM experience is a plus) Strong foundation in electronics and devices, including electrical measurements (RF circuit experience is a plus) Experience in nanofabrication, including photolithography and/or electron-beam lithography Experience with TEM specimen preparation using focused ion beam (FIB) is preferred Programming proficiency (e.g., Python) for experiment automation and/or image analysis is preferred Background in electronic, magnetic, or optical materials is preferred; experience in ultrafast science is a plus Strong record of peer-reviewed publications Ability to model Argonne’s core values of impact, safety, respect, integrity, and teamwork Job Details Job Family: Postdoctoral Job Profile: Postdoctoral Appointee Worker Type: Long-Term (Fixed Term) Time Type: Full time Expected Hiring Range: $72,879.00–$121,465.00 (pay based on experience, scope, and responsibilities) Benefits: Comprehensive benefits included (view here: Argonne Employee Benefits ) Equal Opportunity & Compliance As an equal employment opportunity employer, Argonne National Laboratory is committed to a safe and welcoming workplace that fosters collaborative scientific discovery and innovation. Argonne encourages all qualified applicants to apply without regard to any characteristic protected by law.
