Join to apply for the
Postdoctoral Fellow (PREP0003881)
role at
The Johns Hopkins University
in Gaithersburg, MD. This full‑time position is part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. Salary range: $85,000–$90,000 per year.
General Description This position is part of NIST’s PREP program, which encourages collaboration between NIST staff and academic researchers on joint projects. Employees in this role will perform technical work that supports the scientific research of the collaboration, focusing on the development and use of experimental tools for the characterization of scintillation materials in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavelength regime.
Responsibilities
Conduct literature review of candidate EUV scintillator materials and develop a report based on the review.
Work with a multidisciplinary team to construct, calibrate, and operate a scintillator characterization tool(s).
Interact with NIST staff to develop mechanical design of components for an ultra‑high vacuum synchrotron end‑station using CAD software.
Run, optimize, and document data acquisition codes (LabVIEW and Python).
Aid NIST staff in developing plans for integration of characterization systems into existing SURF III beamlines.
Prepare written reports and documentation for sample measurement, operation of instrumentation, and safety.
Provide input for CHIPS quarterly progress reports.
Qualifications
Ph.D. in physics, engineering, or a related field.
Experience with optical metrology instrument and detector design.
Experience with X‑ray and/or EUV instruments.
Experience with visible or UV microscopy.
Experience with data acquisition hardware and software (LabVIEW and Python).
Statistical data analysis skills.
Strong oral and written communication skills.
Application Instructions
Submit a CV/Resume (limit to 3 pages and include a valid email address).
