University of Bristol - School of Physiology, Pharmacology and Neuroscience, Bristol, Connecticut, us, 06010
Research Associate / Senior Research Associate in Ultrafast Spectroscopy
A postdoctoral research position in experimental ultrafast spectroscopy is available in the School of Chemistry at the University of Bristol, supported by the EPSRC grant UKRI2573,
Quantum Coherence and Correlations in Condensed Phase Photochemical Reaction Dynamics . This study will investigate how important light-driven reactions such as photoinduced ligand-ligand charge-transfer and photoionisation - processes critical to photocatalysis, protein damage and drug design - initially generate charge-transfer products composed of spin-correlated ion-radical pairs. To probe these effects, new ultrafast multidimensional experimental techniques will be developed to read out the evolving spin states and their entanglement on timescales far shorter than have hitherto been possible from magnetic resonance experiments. Responsibilities: Conduct ultrafast laser experiments in the School of Chemistry at the University of Bristol. Collaborate closely with Prof Stephen Bradforth and his research group at USC. Construct new 2D electronic and 2D electronic-vibrational spectroscopy experiments with broadband UV excitation. Requirements: PhD in Physical Chemistry and experience with ultrafast laser spectroscopy. Use of ultrafast laser amplifiers and optical parametric amplifiers; knowledge of non-linear optics; use of hollow-core fibres; experience of ultrafast multidimensional optical spectroscopy. Details: Contract type: Open ended with fixed funding for 2.5 years. Work pattern: Full time. Grade: I or J/Pathway 2. Salary: £39,906 - £44,746 (Grade I) or £43,482 - £50,253 (Grade J) per annum depending on experience. The University of Bristol aims to be a place where everyone feels able to be themselves and do their best in an inclusive working environment where all colleagues can thrive and reach their full potential. The University of Bristol is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
