About the Job

We are seeking a Senior Scientist to join our team at CERN, focusing on the study of materials under extreme conditions. As a key member of our research group, you will investigate the effects of plasma surface treatments on the resistance of materials to electrical breakdown.

Our team is part of the CLIC study, exploring the properties of materials under extreme conditions. You will work closely with experts in plasmas, RF technology, vacuum technology, and surface science to develop novel techniques for measuring field-emitted electron currents.

In this role, you will contribute to the development of a plasma surface treatment that improves the performance of untreated materials. You will also participate in other projects related to materials behavior under extreme conditions, focusing on understanding the role of surface chemistry and ultra-high vacuum conditions.

Key Responsibilities
  • Investigate the effects of plasma surface treatments on material resistance to electrical breakdown.
  • Develop novel techniques for measuring field-emitted electron currents.
  • Contribute to the development of a plasma surface treatment that improves material performance.
  • Collaborate with experts in plasmas, RF technology, vacuum technology, and surface science.
Requirements
  • Experience in material behavior under high electric fields.
  • Knowledge of vacuum and plasma technologies and surface analysis techniques.
  • Fluent in English, with a strong ability to work in a French-speaking environment.
