Join a Trailblazing Research Team in Precision Electron Beam Manufacturing

Are you an expert in surface analysis, nanostructures, and electron beam technologies? The EBEAM Centre at VSB-TUO, under the leadership of Prof. Mark H. Rümmeli, is seeking an accomplished Associate Professor to advance research in 2D materials synthesis, electron-surface interactions, and in situ electron microscopy-driven nanofabrication.

Position Overview:

This position centers on research using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Auger Spectroscopy to investigate and fabricate 2D and thin-film nanomaterials with atomic precision. The ideal candidate will integrate these methods with gas injection systems and thermal stimulation for advanced materials design in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions.

Key Responsibilities:

  • SEM-Driven Synthesis: Lead development of electron beam-assisted synthesis techniques for novel nanomaterials and heterostructures.
  • Surface Science Leadership: Employ AES, SEM, and other spectroscopic methods to study material interfaces and nanoscale interactions.
  • Interdisciplinary Research: Collaborate with physicists, materials scientists, and engineers on projects at the frontier of nanomanufacturing.
  • Mentoring: Supervise and guide PhD students and postdocs in precision material synthesis and characterization.

Essential Qualifications:

  • Ph.D. in Physics, Physical Chemistry, or Materials Science.
  • Must currently hold an Associate Professor (or equivalent) title as defined by national academic standards.
  • Extensive hands-on experience in SEM and AES, especially in UHV environments.
  • Documented track record in nanomaterials synthesis, surface analysis, and thin film engineering.
  • Strong leadership in academic publishing, collaborative research, and mentoring.

Why Join the EBEAM Centre?

  • World-Class Equipment: Access SEM systems with integrated gas injection, UHV platforms, and advanced characterization tools.
  • Innovation-Driven Team: Collaborate with global leaders in electron beam science and 2D material engineering.
  • Inclusive Environment: Work in a diverse, interdisciplinary, and respectful team culture.
  • Research Impact: Contribute to technologies for nanoelectronics, energy systems, and future manufacturing.

Employment Terms:

  • Type of Contract: Fixed-term (with potential extension)
  • Start Date: Negotiable from Sept 1, 2025
  • FTE: Full-time or negotiable
  • Location: Ostrava, Czech Republic
  • Number of Positions: 1

We Offer:

  • Competitive salary based on qualifications and experience
  • State-of-the-art laboratories and computing resources
  • 6 weeks of vacation
  • Flexible working hours
  • University kindergarten
  •  Campus amenities (canteen, free parking)
  • MultiSport card and employee benefits

The EBEAM Centre values diversity and inclusion. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and are committed to providing a supportive and collaborative workplace. Working language: English.
