Flinders Microscopy and Microanalysis has recently acquired a NanoESCA III from Scienta Omicron. The instrument is the first of it's kind in Australia and will enable the direct correlation between electron band-structure of advanced materials with device function. This is essential for understanding the spin dependent electron transport in materials including topological insulators for the development of spintronic devices and transistors for quantum computers; and nanomaterials for energy storage devices and catalysis. The facility is open access to all users from around the world including Universities, Government and Industry. We currently seek a computational condensed matter physicist to develop their own research and assist users with band structure calculations relating advanced materials. The application should have a PhD in condensed matter physics or related field and post doctoral experience.
