Descrierea postului

Job Description:Are you looking for an exciting project in nano-scale quantum physics with tight collaboration to molecular biology for development of new magneto-genetic tools in biology? We offer a postdoctoral position in a dynamic environment of colour centre quantum physics, with collaborators from photo- and plant-biology and -genetics.Responsibilities and qualifications
Your main duties revolve around the development of an experiment focusing on nano-scale quantum sensing applying the unique properties of nitrogen-vacancy colour centers in diamond. With this experiment, we aim at detecting molecular reactions at the single to few molecules level. For the project to develop efficiently, this requires competencies in optical and quantum physics, experience in development of experimental control hardware, and perseverance and ingenuity.This position is part of a Novo Nordisk Fonden funded interdisciplinary synergy project and you will be part of the solid state quantum sensing team at DTU Physics and DTU Health Technology. Besides the local collaborations, you will work closely together with biologists from the University of Copenhagen, Sorbonne University/France and Umeå University/Sweden, frequently visiting the partners and be responsible for the continuous dialogue.Your tasks include, but are not limited to

• Develop the experimental hardware for nano-scale quantum sensing with single NV colour centres
• Determine, design and implement suitable detection sequences for nano-scale quantum sensing
• In collaboration with local colleagues as well as those at Sorbonne University, determine and implement optimal experimental approaches for molecular scale quantum sensing
• Co-supervise and guide younger project students at the BSc, MSc and PhD level
• Maintain a thriving laboratory culture, ensuring progress and open discussion.

As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).We offer
DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation and scientific advice. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility.Salary and terms of employment
The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.The position is fulltime, and the period of employment is 2 years. The preferred starting date is 1 June 2025 or as soon as possible.You can read more about .Further information

Your complete online application must be submitted no later than 7 May 2025 (23:59 Danish time). Applications must be submitted as one PDF file containing all materials to be given consideration. To apply, please open the link “Apply now”, fill out the online application form, and attach all your materials in English in one PDF file. The file must include:

• Application (cover letter)
• CV
• Academic Diplomas (MSc/PhD – in English)
• List of publications
• Letter of recommendation

Applications received after the deadline will not be considered.All interested candidates irrespective of age, gender, disability, race, religion or ethnic background are encouraged to apply. As DTU works with research in critical technology, which is subject to special rules for security and export control, open-source background checks may be conducted on qualified candidates for the position.Technology for people
DTU develops technology for people. With our international elite research and study programmes, we are helping to create a better world and to solve the global challenges formulated in the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Hans Christian Ørsted founded DTU in 1829 with a clear mission to develop and create value using science and engineering to benefit society. That mission lives on today. DTU has 13,500 students and 6,000 employees. We work in an international atmosphere and have an inclusive, evolving, and informal working environment. DTU has campuses in all parts of Denmark and in Greenland, and we collaborate with the best universities
