Beschreibung
Friedrich Schiller University is a traditional university with a strong research profile rooted in the heart of Germany. As a university covering all disciplines, it offers a wide range of subjects. Its research is focused on the areas Light—Life—Liberty. It is closely networked with non-research institutions, research companies and renowned cultural institutions. With around 18,000 students and more than 8,600 employees, the university plays a major role in shaping Jena's character as a cosmopolitan and future-oriented city.
The Collaborative Research Center (SFB/CRC) 1375 "Nonlinear Optics down to atomic Scales" ) was chosen by the German Research Foundation (DFG) in a competitive sci-entific panel and solely based on excellence criteria. NOA investigates fundamental nonlinear optical processes in nanostructures and low-dimensional systems. In an interdisciplinary approach of physi-cists, chemists and material scientists, we theoretically and experimentally explore quantum phe-nomena of light-matter interaction such as light-induced tunneling of electrons through metallic nanogaps, higher harmonic generation and field-driven carrier acceleration in plasmonic nanostruc-tures, atomic lattices, 2D-materials and quantum materials. We aim to design new subwavelength-scale materials with tailored nonlinearities at atomic precision, e.g. for optical switching, sensing, quantum conversion and energy conversion.In its second funding period , the SFB 1375 NOA is offering up to 10 positions is to be filled as soon as possible:
PhD student positions - Nonlinear Optics
We offer part-time position (75%, 30 hours per week), limited until
We are looking for excellent Diploma or M.Sc. graduates with a strong background in physics, chemistry and/or photonics being interested to engage in our scientific vision.
