About the job

For a position as a PhD Candidate, the goal is a completed doctoral education up to an obtained doctoral degree.

The PhD position is within the field of experimental materials physics with a focus on in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterization of aluminum alloys. The position is part of SFI PhysMet and the research area Multiscale Materials Analysis. SFI PhysMet -Centre for Sustainable and Competitive Metallurgical and Manufacturing Industry - is a centre for innovation at NTNU with research partners NTNU, SINTEF and IFE and user partners from the metallurgical and manufacturing industry in Norway. The PhD project will be carried out in close collaboration with other PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, SINTEF researchers and industry partners in the centre. 

Norway produces over 2 million tons of aluminum per year, most of this is so-called age-hardenable alloyswith some percentages of alloying elements (Mg, Si, Zn, Cu..) added. These alloys gain their strength from nanoscale precipitates embedded in the aluminium matrix. Composition and thermomechanical processing are what determine the microstructure of the alloy, which in turn determines properties such as strength, ductility, and corrosion. Today, there is a desire to include more recycled material in products, which affects the composition and thus properties. This PhD project will study microstructure in situ during heating, using state-of-the-art characterization techniques, with emphasis on TEM. Use of the NORTEM infrastructure at TEM Gemini Center will be important in the PhD study, including data analysis and method development. In situ data typically falls under the big data category and the ideal candidate should have an interest in developing machine learning tools. This involves observing unprecedented phenomena and is well beyond the state-of-the-art. This is also an exciting time to join the TEM Gemini Centre as we are currently installing a new top instrument that will be operational by August 2025.

The position is under the Department of Physics (IFY), NV, NTNU. Your immediate leader is the Head of Department of Physics (https://www.ntnu.edu/physics).

Duties of the position


	Perform original research, collaborate closely with other researchers in SFI PhysMet, TEM Gemini Centre and the in situ project group.
	Plan and carry out experiments according to the project goals with the support of industry partners.
	Write and publish journal articles and present results at international scientific conferences.
	Perform advanced TEM studies and in situ microstructure studies of precipitation development in age-hardenable aluminum alloys. 
	Develop analysis methods and high throughput analysis of TEM data.


Required selection criteria


	You must have a professionally relevant background in nanotechnology, physics and/or materials technology.
	Your education must correspond to a five-year Norwegian degree program, where 120 credits are obtained at master's level
	You must have a strong academic background from your previous studies and an average grade from the master's degree program, or equivalent education, which is equal to B or better compared with NTNU's grading scale. If you do not have letter grades from previous studies, you must have an equally good academic basis. If you have a weaker grade background, you may be assessed if you can document that you are particularly suitable for a PhD education.
	Current master's students can apply, but the master's degree must be obtained and documented before the start of the position and no later than 15 August 2025.
	You must meet the requirements for admission to the faculty's doctoral program https://www.ntnu.edu/nv/phd/admission.
	You must be able to document knowledge and hands-on experience with TEM.
	You must have basic computer and programming skills. High level skills here can compensate for a lack of hands-on skills in TEM.
	You must have good oral and written presentation skills in English and preferably also in Norwegian.


The appointment is to be made in accordance with Regulations on terms of employment for positions such as postdoctoral fellow, Phd candidate, research assistant and specialist candidate and Regulations concerning the degrees of Philosophiae Doctor (PhD) and Philosodophiae Doctor (PhD) in artistic research national guidelines for appointment as PhD, post doctor and research assistant
