Beschreibung
The Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE in Freiburg, Germany is the largest solar research institute in Europe.

With a staff of about 1.400, we are committed to promoting a sustainable, economic, secure and socially fair energy supply system based on renewable energy sources.

We contribute to this through our main research areas of energy provision, energy distribution, energy storage and energy utilization.

Through outstanding research results, successful industrial projects, spin-off companies and global collaborations, we are shaping the sustainable transformation of the energy system.

Power electronics are a central component of renewable energy systems. Due to their great potential, silicon carbide-based devices are attracting more and more interest.

In the newly founded group "Laser-Matter Interaction", we are dealing with the process engineering and materials science issues, which are very diverse and complex.


You want to actively shape the energy transition as part of an interdisciplinary institute? Then let's contribute to it together As a group leader, you will build up the newly founded group "Laser-Matter Interaction" and steer the research activities in the field of laser-based process technology for silicon carbide.

You will have a variety of characterization methods at your disposal, including a pump-probe setup, a wide range of laser sources and the expertise of many people.
