Postdoctoral Fellow in advancing 3D X-Ray ptychography for imaging integrated circuits 80% - 100%
The Paul Scherrer Institute PSI is the largest research institute for natural and engineering sciences within Switzerland. We perform cutting-edge research in the fields of future technologies, energy and climate, health innovation and fundamentals of nature. By performing fundamental and applied research, we work on sustainable solutions for major challenges facing society, science and economy. PSI is committed to the training of future generations. Therefore, about one quarter of our staff are post-docs, post-graduates or apprentices. Altogether, PSI employs 2200 people.
For the Computational X-Ray Imaging Group we are looking for a
Postdoctoral Fellow in advancing 3D X-Ray ptychography for imaging integrated circuits80% or more, flextimeYour tasksAs a Postdoctoral Fellow on our 3D X-Ray ptychography project you will help us advance, develop, and optimize the technique towards nanoscale 3D imaging. In particular, you will improve imaging of integrated circuits by leveraging machine learning. The project leans towards method and algorithm development working together with the Swiss Data Science Center SDSC. The position is hosted by the Computational X-Ray Imaging CXI group at PSI and will also involve working closely with colleagues at the cSAXS beamline of the Swiss Light Source.
Within this collaboration, you will develop new data-driven measurement strategies to optimize sampling during the experiments, and new reconstruction approaches that can leverage priors. You will reconstruct and analyze the obtained data to overcome issues currently limiting the sharpest resolution that we can obtain.
You will publish the results in peer-reviewed scientific journals and present them at international conferences. Additionally, you will support and mentor PhD and Master students of the CXI group.
Your profile
Your employment contract is limited to 2 years.
For further information, please contact Prof. Dr Manuel Guizar Sicairos, email Write an email.
Please submit your application online by 13 May 2024 (including list of publications and addresses of referees) for the position as a Postdoctoral Fellow (index no. 6115-00).
