The Department has 270 employees and an annual budget of 290 million SEK. The Department's six research programs conduct highly successful research of high international caliber. We have a large number of externally funded research projects, often with international collaboration, and we see continued strong growth in our field. The Department has educational responsibilities within engineering and civil engineering programs as well as master's programs. More information is available on our website: https:\/\/kemi.uu.se\/angstrom\n\nRead more about our benefits and what it's like to work at Uppsala University\n\nProject Description\nThe project involves research in growth by physical vapor deposition (PVD), fundamental materials science studies of thin films of Mg-based ceramic materials (Mg2Si, Mg2Sn, Mg3Bi2) fabricated with PVD, and characterization of properties (thermoelectric, mechanical, chemical).\n\nMain Responsibilities\nThe primary duties of a postdoctoral researcher are to conduct research. These may also include teaching, up to 20% of work time. The focus is on developing and characterizing thin film materials of Mg-based ceramic materials (Mg2Si, Mg2Sn, Mg3Bi2) fabricated with PVD, characterizing the materials, with room for the postdoctoral researcher's own project ideas within the broader framework of PVD research activities. Responsibilities may also include internal collaborations, including with thesis students and doctoral candidates, and collaboration with external partners.\n\nQualifications Required:\nDoctorate degree, or a foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a doctorate, in materials science, chemistry, or similar. The degree must be completed by the time the employment decision is made. Preferably, the degree should have been completed no more than three years ago. In calculating the three-year period, the deadline for application is the starting point. If there are special reasons, such a degree may have been completed earlier. Special reasons include leave due to illness, parental leave, positions of trust within labor organizations, etc.\n\nEvaluation of applications will primarily be based on the applicant's ability to conduct independent research based on scientific competence. Greater weight is placed on the quality of each individual scientific work than on the number of publications.\n\nConsideration is also given to good collaboration skills, drive and independence, and how the applicant's experience and competence complement and strengthen ongoing research at the Department and how they can contribute to its future development.\n\nExcellent English language skills, both spoken and written, are required.\n\nDesirable\/Meritorious Qualifications\nExperience in multicomponent materials\/high-entropy alloys is meritorious.\n\nAbout the Position\nThe employment is time-limited for 2 years, with the possibility of extension for an additional year. The position is 100%. Start date by agreement. Location: Uppsala\n\nFor information about the position, contact: Professor Per Eklund, per.eklund@kemi.uu.se\n\nWelcome to submit your application by August 31, 2026, UFV-PA 2026\/2455.\n\nUppsala University is a broad research university with a strong international position. The ultimate goal is to conduct education and research of the highest quality and relevance to make a difference in society. Our most important asset is all 7,500 employees and 53,000 students who, with curiosity and commitment, make Uppsala University one of the country's most exciting workplaces.\n\nRead more about our benefits and what it's like to work at Uppsala University\nhttps:\/\/uu.se\/om-uu\/jobba-hos-oss\/\n\nThe employment may be subject to security screening.
