QSP is hiring a postdoctoral fellow for the project: “Metal doped carbon clusters as model systems for the chemical storage of hydrogen”. The project involves the study of clusters in molecular beams using mass spectrometry, hydrogen reactivity studies in an ion trap, and infrared spectroscopy using an OPO/OPA tunable laser. Most experiments will be performed in a molecular beam setup at KU Leuven, which uses a laser ablation source for the production of transition metal doped carbon clusters or transition metals on fullerenes. In addition, far-infrared spectroscopy experiments will be performed at the free electron laser facility FELIX in The Netherlands. In a later phase, soft-landed cluster deposition will be employed to fabricate materials made of deposited transition metal clusters on carbon supports. The task of the postdoc will involve a range of experiments on size-selected clusters, dedicated to investigate the interaction of hydrogen with transition metal doped carbon-based materials at the nanoscale. You will coordinate the daily activities in the gas phase cluster laboratory, guiding Master and PhD students, as well as developing your own research tasks.
