The world is made of materials, our quest is to explore it.

The exploration of dimensionality aspects of phase transitions as well as all advanced production of devices requires good knowledge of materials. That knowledge is our mission.

The Ångström Laboratory, Uppsala University.

The cornerstone of the activity at Materials Physics is the solid integration of research, educational and outreaching efforts. Educational efforts range from introduction level to post graduate studies, covering many aspects of modern physics.

The scientific competence is based on the production and analysis of modern materials. It ranges from in-house activities to the utilisation of large international facilities, all with the quest of exploring the inherent properties of natural as well as man-made materials. Hydrogen in materials, magnetic materials as well as soft materials are current examples reflecting the range of research directions.

There are currently three PhD positions and two Postdoctoral positions available, deadline for application is 2012-04-30 and 2012-04-15 respectively. Check the "Open positions" tab for more details.
