Beskrivning av ämnesområdet
Förståelse av förekomsten av spårsyrefilament i Oxygen Minimum Zones med hjälp av autonoma undervattensrobotar och nya sensorer.

Denna doktorandplats finns i gränsområdet mellan fysisk och biogeokemisk oceanografi och är en del av ERC Synergy-projektet RECLESS (Recycling versus loss in the marine nitrogen cycle: controls, feedbacks, and the impact of expanding low oxygen regions). RECLESS syftar till att förutsäga hur pågående syrebrist i haven påverkar mikrobiella kvävetransformationer och därmed den framtida tillgången på kväve för att stödja oceanisk primärproduktion och kolbindning. Projektet involverar forskare från universiteten i Göteborg, Wien och Syddanmark, samt Carnegie Science, och integrerar på ett synergistiskt sätt innovativa oceanografiska, biogeokemiska, ekofysiologiska och modellbaserade undersökningar.

Högkänsliga syresensorer har visat att syret i kärnan av så kallade Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ) är förbrukat under en detektionsgräns på ~10 nM, vilket antyder att dessa vatten är funktionellt syrefria. Syre kan dock fortfarande påverka kvävecykeln i dessa vatten på oväntade sätt, vilket i grunden utmanar vår förståelse av hur balansen mellan kväveåtervinning och -förlust kontrolleras. Syre kan tränga in tillfälligt genom fysiska fenomen som strömvirvlar och filament på hundra meters till kilometers skala, vilket är på skalor som satellit- och globala modeller ännu inte kan upptäcka, och deras flyktiga egenskaper gör dem svåra att fånga med punktobservationer. Därför är både frekvensen och omfattningen av en sådan syretillförsel fortfarande okända.  

Denna doktorandplats kommer att kvantifiera syreventilation i OMZ med hög rumslig och temporal upplösning med hjälp av en ny ultrakänslig syresensor på undervattensrobotar på forskningsexpeditioner som sträcker sig över flera OMZ. Det kommer att ge oss en unik position för att avslöja effekten, frekvensen och omfattningen av syreintrång i OMZ.

Doktoranden kommer att sitta i FLOW Lab och Bristow Lab och arbeta med andra studenter och forskare i dessa grupper, såväl som med övriga institutioner som ingår i RECLESS-projektet. Institutionen för marina vetenskaper vid Göteborgs universitet har också en stor och välmående doktorandgrupp, där Göteborg och dess omgivningar, samt förmånerna i denna anställning, erbjuder en utmärkt livskvalitet.

Doktorandens handledargrupp kommer att bestå av Dr. Bastien Queste och Dr. Laura Bristow.

Postdoc in Nanofluics-Integrated Microcavities for Photochemistry

Forskarassistent
Läs mer Apr 25
Nytt
Are you interested in cutting edge research combining nanofluidics, nanophotonics and photochemistry? Join the Langhammer group at Chalmers University of Technology to develop the next generation of nanofluidic devices for steering chemical reactions using light.

Information about the Research Project
Photochemical and photocatalytic reactions play a crucial role in contemporary science and technology, e.g., for organic synthesis, therapeutic photosensitizers, wastewater treatment, CO2 fixation, and sustainable solar fuel production. Spatial confinement of molecules in cavities and pores, typically around 1 – 10 nm in diameter, can dramatically alter these reactions. At the same time, optical resonators and microcavities that are formed by, e.g., two reflecting surfaces only 50 – 150 nm apart, enable light confinement to tiny volumes by resonant recirculation, which significantly enhances light-matter interactions inside the cavity. Such microcavities have been in the spotlight of nanophotonics for over a decade due to fascinating phenomena like strong light-matter coupling, enhanced energy transfer, and modification of (photo)chemical reaction rates.

Information about the research group
The Langhammer group at the Chemical Physics Divison at the Department of Physics operates at the interface between nanomaterial science, catalysis, nanoplasmonics and nanofluidics, with a particular focus on sustainable energy-related nanomaterials, single-molecule label free nanofluidic optical microscopy and spectroscopy, single particle catalysis and plasmonic hydrogen nanosensors. For that purpose, we continuously develop and evolve our own methodologies for state-of-the-art nanofabrication, as well as build our own customized research instrumentation.

Now we open up a new research direction towards the development of tunable optomechanical microcavities with nanofluidic access for photochemistry, for which we are seeking a Postdoc to join our dynamic, cross-diciplinary team.

This recruitment is connected to a cross-diciplinary research project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation and a collaboration with Prof. Timur Shegai and Asst. Prof Angela Grommet at Chalmers.

For more information about the Langhammer Group, please visit our group home page: www.langhammerlab.se

The home page of the Chemical Physics Division that hosts the Langhammer Group provides further relevant information.

Who we are looking for
We seek candidates with the following qualifications:


• A PhD degree in physics.
• An experimental PhD thesis in applied physics.
• Excellent collaboration skills.
• Excellent documented written and oral English skills.

To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline. 

You are expected to be somewhat accustomed to teaching, and to demonstrate good potential within research and education.

* The date shown in your doctoral degree certificate is the date we use, as this is the date you have met all requirements for the doctoral degree. Exceptions from the 3-year limit can be made for longer periods resulting from parental leave, sick leave or military service.

The following experience will strengthen your application:

• Documented experience with nanophotonics
• Documented experience with nanofluidics
• Documented experience with advanced optical microscopy/spectroscopy
• Documented experience with catalysis/photochemistry
• Documented computer programming skills using Python and MATLAB
• Documented experience with analysis of complex scientific data e.g. through machine learning

What you will do



• execute experimental tasks, such as planning of experiments alone or together with other members of the Langhammer group and the project team with members of the Grommet and Shegai groups, advanced nanofabrication of nanofluidic structures with integrated optical cavities, executing measurements of such cavities to characterize their optical properties and to study photocatalytic reactions happening inside them, characterize your samples using electron microcopy and other techniques.
• evaluate and summarize your large amount of complex data, possibily involving state-of-the-art machine learning methods developed in the group by other team members, and share them with our cross-diciplinary research team and at international research conferences.
