Open Positions

One post-doc position in experimental condensed matter physics group is available. The candidate will focus on synthesis and characterization of topological electron systems, such as Weyl semimetals and 3D Dirac semimetals. A combination of single crystal growth, solid state reaction, X-ray, transport and thermodynamic measurements will be involved in the research.
