News The Faculty of Geosciences (Faculty 05) and our research group Crystallography and Geomaterials at the University of Bremen is looking for a Doctoral Candidate
(f/m/d) on the “Interplay
of structure and dynamics in aluminium phosphate
frameworks”, German Federal Salary Scale 13 TV-L with 75% of the weekly working time (29.4 working hours) limited for 3 years, starting as soon as possible. Application deadline: 08.07.2025 Full application under UniJobs |

Studied Materials:
We are interested in crystalline materials with complex local atomic structures. This includes minerals occurring in the earth’s crust as well as synthetically produced compounds, especially microporous materials (zeolites and metal-organic frameworks) and mullite-type compounds.
Methods
- Powder- and single crystal diffracton at various temperatures with X-rays, neutrons and electrons
- Thermal analysis
- Crystal growth
- Molecular modelling with force fields
- Density functional theory calculations
- Qualitative and quantitative phase analysis
