The Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute (SBQMI) at UBC is seeking a PhD-level scientific researcher to support a renewed research thrust in single crystal growth and characterization of quantum materials. This multi-year position as a Research Associate will support the Institute's Principal Investigators in the design and crystal growth of bulk materials exhibiting emerging quantum phenomena. The candidate will also study the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of these materials using a range of techniques, as a complement to existing expertise.
Under the direction of the Principal Investigators working on this project, the successful candidate will: oversee the operation of a state-of-the-art floating zone crystal growth lab; mentor a team of students and postdocs; through crystal growth, support multiple research groups that specialize in neutron scattering, scanning probe microscopy, ARPES, and optical investigations; coordinate and interpret measurements; publicize research findings through presentations at international conferences and preparing articles for peer-reviewed journals; and contribute to writing funding proposals that will add new capabilities to the crystal growth facility.
SBQMI is a world-leading venture into research of systems and phenomena involving quantum materials. We believe in the power of collaboration to fuel the search for creative solutions and, in addition to building a strong interdisciplinary team of experimentalists and theorists from physics, chemistry and applied science, have established active partnerships with TRIUMF, the Canadian Light Source, the Max Planck Society, University of Tokyo, and many other world leading institutions.
The successful candidate will thrive in our collegial culture and will bring the following qualifications to the role:
If you are interested in this exciting opportunity to push the boundaries of knowledge through the discovery of new materials, please apply with your CV, a statement of research interests, and a covering letter.
