Missions

The goal of the project is to investigate the local structure-properties relationship in model high-entropy oxides using X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The postdoc ill thus have to correlate the structural information extracted from X-ray absorption spectra with the mecroscopic properties of these materials.

Activités

- Experiments on synchrotron (data acquisition, treatment and analysis, writing of the experiment report)
- Correlation between the structural data and the properies/chemical composition of the oxides investigated synchrotron
- Writing of synchrotron proposals
- Writing of the scientific articles
- Presentation of the results in conference(s)

Compétences

- scientific curiosity
- knowledge of chemistry of materials
- scientific writing
- rigour in the data analysis
- English
- team work

Contexte de travail

The postdoc will be in the "Structure, Propreties and Scientific Calculations for Materials" of the Institute of Molecular Chemistry and Chemistry of Materials of Orsay. The postdoc will owrk mainly with Amélie Bordage, principal investigator of the Emergence@CNRS Chimie project which pays for this postdoc.
All the experiments will be on synchrotron, mainly at SOLEIL (Gif sur Yvette) and ESRF (Grenoble).

Le poste se situe dans un secteur relevant de la protection du potentiel scientifique et technique (PPST), et nécessite donc, conformément à la réglementation, que votre arrivée soit autorisée par l'autorité compétente du MESR.

Contraintes et risques

Experiments on synchrotron may happen on week-ends and bank holidays.
