The Institute of Quantum Phenomena in Novel Materials undertakes world leading research in quantum and frustrated magnetism, multifunctional materials and superconductivity. As well as operating several X-ray instruments at the BESSY synchrotron, we also host
the Core Laboratory for Quantum Materials which offers state-of-the-art materials synthesis and the full range of sample characterization facilities including X-ray Laue and powder diffraction, magnetization, specific heat and transport measurements. Neutron
scattering experiments performed at external facilities are also a major activity and we interpret our data via extensive collaboration with our theoretical colleagues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h3><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Your tasks<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">You will study quantum materials with particular emphasis on frustrated and topological magnets.<br>
Recent research has brought to light exotic phases and excitations such as classical and quantum spin ice with monopole excitations and new forms of topological order such as spin liquids with spinon excitations. These phenomena will be investigated by identifying
materials that exhibit these properties and using the experimental techniques of physical property measurement and neutron and x-ray scattering to study their behavior.<br>
You are expected to gain an understanding of the physical processes through complex data analysis and computer simulations; close collaboration with theoretical physicists will also provide you with additional insight.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
