The position is available from the 1st of May 2026, or as soon as possible hereafter. Job description Your research will look at a special class of porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that is based on redox-active organic building blocks. These building blocks enforce charge delocalization and give rise to exotic quantum states that relate to superconductivity. This project will focus on two types of phenomena: (i) Charge Density Wave (CDW) order in magnetic, lanthanide-based MOFs and (ii) electride-like, quasiatomic electron states that reside in the pores of certain MOFs. The aim of the project is to map these states with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy/Spectroscopy (STM/STS) and where possible, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Your work will focus on the spectroscopy, and does not involve single-crystal synthesis. This project involves intensive international collaboration with multiple research groups. Your profile You hold a PhD in physics, chemistry or materials science. Preferably you have a background in STM/STS, photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES, XPS) or Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM).
