Research Associate for the Project “Cluster of Excellence ‚CUI: Advanced Imaging of Matter’ – Imaging attosecond electron dynamics in molecules” § 28 Subsection 3 HmbHGInstitutionCluster of Excellence „CUI: Advanced Imaging of Matter“ (photon and nanosciences)Salary levelStart dateas soon as possible, fixed for a period of two years (This is a fixed-term contract in accordance with Section 2 of the academic fixed-term labor contract act [Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz, WissZeitVG]).Application deadline19.12.2025Scope of workfull-time position suitable for part-timeYour responsibilitiesDuties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications. We are opening a new Research Associate position in the attosecond science team at the Center for Free- Electron LaserScience (CFEL) in Hamburg. In the CFEL-ATTO group we develop advanced attosecond technology with the aim of tracking and controlling electron dynamics in matter. More specifically, our technology allows us to follow charge migration occurring on the attosecond and few-femtosecond time scales in bio-chemically relevant molecules. In this context, the Research Associate will closely work with experts in ultrafast crystallography to develop a new experimental approach to directly image charge dynamics with attosecond and Ångstrom resolution. Additionally, electron dynamics will be traced using attosecond time-resolved X-ray spectroscopic approaches. The work will be primarily conducted at attosecond free-electron laser facilities.Your profileA university degree in a relevant field. a PhD in physics, chemistry, or materials science is desirable or, if the doctoral degree has not been awarded yet, an already defended PhD thesis in a relevant field experience with ultrafast lasers and attosecond technology experience with free-electron laser science experimental skills and interest in instrumentation development excellent knowledge of English ability to work as part of a team We offerReliable remuneration based on wage agreementsContinuing education opportunitiesUniversity pensionsAttractive locationFlexible working hoursWork-life balance opportunitiesHealth management, EGYM WellpassEducational leave30 days of vacation per annumUniversität Hamburg—University of Excellence is one of the strongest research educational institutions in Germany.
