    Job description

    The PhD will focus on implementing numerical optimization strategies to design pulse sequences for high-resolution solid-state NMR under magic-angle spinning. The efficiency of such pulse-sequence elements is key for improving the sensitivity of NMR experiments. To obtain the best performance not only parameters of the spin systems but also experimental imperfections of the spectrometers have to be included in the modelling of the experiment. Such an approach will require:

  • Extending and improving an existing framework for optimizing pulse sequences based on effective Hamiltonian calculations
  • Numerical simulation of generated sequences to check their performance under a large range of experimental conditions
  • Implementing these sequences on commercial NMR spectrometers to check their experimental performance on model systems
  • Iterative improvements in the optimization tools to improve the performance of the generated sequences
  • The output of the PhD will be new pulse-sequence elements that can be used in applications of NMR in biological systems and material science.

    Your profile

    We are looking for a highly-motivated student who is interested in working on the intersection between Chemistry and Physics in a small interdisciplinary team. The position will require independence, perseverance and the willingness to acquaint yourself with new topics and methods.

    You should:

  • Hold a master's degree in a relevant field, such as Chemistry, Physics, Engineering or similar
  • Have an excellent track record and meet the general admission requirements for a doctorate at ETH Zurich
  • Previous experience in solid-state NMR is a bonus but not a requirement
  • Be interested in the intersection between Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics
  • Be interested in theory, numerical simulations and experimental implementation of pulse sequences
  • Have experience with computer simulations and programming
