Jobs in Physical Crystallography

Postdoctoral Opportunities:

Postdoctoral Research Associate

Location : University of Edinburgh

Supervisors: Dr James Cumby

The School of Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh is looking for an exceptional researcher to develop a new method to measure X-ray diffraction during rapid cooling to liquid helium temperatures, and use this to discover new metastable materials with negative thermal expansion. You will work in collaboration with Diamond Light Source, applying expertise across chemistry, physics and engineering.

Postdoctoral Research Associate

Location : Queen Mary University of London

Supervisors: Dr Anthony Phillips and Prof Huasheng Wang


Barocaloric solid-state cooling is a promising new technology that has potential to dramatically reduce the carbon cost of cooling and refrigeration. In an EPSRC-funded collaboration, Dr Anthony Phillips (School of Physical and Chemical Sciences) and Prof Huasheng Wang (School of Engineering and Materials Science) are assembling a team to build a prototype barocaloric cooling device that demonstrates this effect on a laboratory scale, and that can be used to test the operando performance of various barocaloric materials and heat exchange structures. They are looking for a researcher to develop, prepare and test the prototype cooling device for this project.

More details on the 2 positions available can be found here and here.




PhD Studentships:

New approaches for studying the structure of high-temperature molten materials

Supervisors: Dr Emma Barney (University of Nottingham) and Oliver Alderman (ISIS Neutron and Muon Source)

This studentship will use neutron diffraction to study molten materials and develop new furnace environments to support the research. It will primarily be based at the ISIS neutron source at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, and will be co supervised by Dr Oliver Alderman.
