Postdoctoral Appointee - MSD Nanoscale Magnetic Heterostructures

Company

Argonne National Laboratory

June 25, 2026

Position Overview

The Materials Science Division (MSD) at Argonne National Laboratory is seeking a postdoctoral appointee to join the Nanoscale Magnetic and Electronic Heterostructures group. This position will focus on understanding novel and emergent behavior in nanoscale magnetic heterostructures, particularly in confined 2D van der Waals magnets and related devices. The goal of the program is to study and control magnetic domains such as nontrivial skyrmions, using external stimuli (e.g., optical excitations, electric and magnetic fields) and internal nanoscale heterogeneity, defects, and interfaces (e.g., twisting heterostructures). Correlating the magnetic domain behavior with microstructure/composition will enable the local energy landscape of the nanostructures to be determined. The successful candidate will primarily leverage state-of-the-art in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM), including Lorentz TEM, and will have the opportunity to utilize other advanced techniques, such as ultrafa...
