Postdoc Position in Organic Functional Materials100 % Department of Chemistry, Biochemistry and Pharmaceutical SciencesStart of employment: November 2025(the position is available for one year with the possibility to prolongate) The University of Bern is the third largest University in Switzerland. The position offers a world-class scientific environment with an outstanding infrastructure.Our Department at Bern University invites applications for a Post-Doctoral Research Associate to work on a collaborative WSS Grant, 'Werner-Siemens Forschungszentrum für molekulare Quantensysteme (MolQ)'. Tasks MolQ aims to develop a new generation of switchable topological superconductors to advance molecular quantum bits for quantum computing and quantum information technologies. To achieve this, the project will focus on the design and synthesis of a wide range of functional molecules, enabling exploration of structure–function relationships at the molecular level.The MolQ project will pioneer new strategies for controlling molecular assembly and charge pattern on various superconducting surfaces, as well as novel approaches for engineering molecular quantum bits.This position will contribute to these goals by focusing on the synthesis and characterization of functional molecules specifically designed to optimize electronic properties and self-assembly behavior on surfaces. The successful candidate will synthesize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with unique electronic properties and structural features. These molecules will be used in on-surface self-assembly processes and chemical reactions to create functional 2D nanostructures. The role involves the development of synthetic methodologies for functionalized PAHs, along with fundamental investigations into the optical and redox properties of the molecules, particularly those designed to exploit surface charge/discharge behavior.We welcome applications from candidates with strong expertise in organic synthesis and materials chemistry.Applicants should hold (or be close to completing) a PhD in organic chemistry or a closely related field.Further information on the MolQ grant can be found here: Your profile You are an independent, curious, creative, and ambitious team player who enjoys interdisciplinary science, mastering new things, and rigorous experimental work. You possess:PhD degree in organic chemistry with a strong track record Strong background in organic synthesis, preferably with experience in the synthesis of N-PAHs or fused electron donor-acceptor (D-A) ensemble, including work under moisture- and oxygen-free conditions Solid experience with common analytical and purification methods (., NMR, UV-Vis, Cyclic Voltammetry, HPLC, MS) Good command of written and spoken English We offer Multi-facetted and interesting range of tasks with further education opportunities Progressive employment and social security provisions in accordance with cantonal guidelines Central location Your application We look forward to receiving your application by email to by October 31, 2025. It must include a letter of motivation (max 2 pages), a Curriculum Vitae, contact details of two references, and a research summary highlighting your experience with organic synthesis. Only complete applications compiled in a single pdf file will be considered.
