Objet:	[Neutron] Post-doctoral position in energy materials and neutron scattering at Peking 
University
Pièces jointes:	ATT00001.txt

Dear Colleagues, 
    We are currently seeking to hire two postdoctoral research associates with expertise in utilizing 
neutron scattering techniques to investigate the crystal structure and ionic dynamics of energy 
materials (e.g., Li/Na-ion cathodes). Candidates with a strong interest in neutron scattering 
techniques and research experience in energy materials (e.g. Li/Na-ion battery materials or related 
materials) are especially encouraged to apply. The appointment is for a two-year term with the 
possibility for extension and promotion. We offer a competitive salary, access to state-of-the-art 
research resources, and a stimulating research environment. The post-doctoral research will be 
based at Peking University Shenzhen Graduate School (Shenzhen, China). 
 
Research fields?
-    Research on the structural characteristics of energy materials, including battery materials, 
hydrogen storage materials, thermoelectric materials, etc.
-    Research on the formation mechanism and real-time evolutions of multiphase structures for 
Li/Na-ion battery materials. 
-    Application and development of in-situ/operando neutron characterization techniques; Design and 
construction of neutron instruments for investigating the structure of energy materials at neutron 
facilities.
 
Qualification requirements:  
-    Applicants should have or be close to completing a Ph.D. no more than three years before the last 
date for application. 
-    Educational background in materials science, condensed matter physics, or physical chemistry, 
among others.
-    Several high-level scientific articles published in the corresponding research field.
-    Experience in neutron/X-ray scattering techniques or energy materials.
-    Proficiency in effective oral and written communication in English.
 
Duties/Responsibilities:
-    Development of in-operando electrochemical neutron diffraction platform and other relevant 
neutron scattering techniques to investigate Li/Na-ion batteries. 
-    Conducting neutron/X-ray scattering experiments and analyzing data.
-    Publishing scientific articles and presenting results at national or international meetings.
 
For further information about the position please contact Prof. Xiao at y.xiao@pku.edu.cn. This 
position will remain open until qualified candidates are identified or hired. Please forward this 
message to potential candidates. Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Yinguo
