RWTH Aachen Research Assistant/Associate 2025

The Institute of Crystallography at RWTH Aachen University conducts research at the interface between chemistry, physics, geosciences and materials science. Our research aims to gain a better understanding of the structure and dynamics of nanoscale solid-liquid interfaces, which are important in catalysis, energy and nanomaterials, and our environment. To achieve this, we use and develop state-of-the-art X-ray and neutron scattering methods, both in the laboratory and at large-scale research facilities.
