At the Faculty of Physics, Institute of Applied Physics, the Chair of Ultrafast Microscopy and Photonics offers a position as
Research Associate / PhD Student (m/f/x)
Ultrafast detection of THz-controlled light emitters in quantum matter
(subject to personal qualification employees are remunerated according to salary group E 13 TV-L)
starting February 1, 2026. The position is initially limited until June 30, 2028 with the option of extension and entails 75% of the full-time weekly hours. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz - WissZeitVG). The position offers the chance to obtain further academic qualification which is highly recommended. The position is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung - BMBF).
The research activities of the Chair of Ultrafast Microscopy and Photonics concentrate on many-particle effects and interaction with light in solid matter for basic research and applications in future technologies. They take place at the TUD, one the world's leading research institutions in the field of optoelectronics and novel semiconductors, as part of the research projects focused on propagation dynamics of exciton-electron complexes in atomically-thin semiconductors and quantum gases in moiré-ordered and reconstructed heterostructures. We offer you a varied and demanding employment with an excellent working atmosphere in a highly motivated, international team.

Working field:

scientific research on optical properties of excitonic many-particle states in novel two-dimensional materials coupled to THz radiation: spectroscopic investigations of two-dimensional semiconductors, measurements and analysis using linear and non-linear microscopy combining optical and THz excitation using streak camera detectors. The scientific work further includes collaborations with national and international research partners as well as communication of the results in peer reviewed journals and at international conferences.

Requirements:

— university degree (master or comparable) in physics
— interest in basic and application-related research; high self-motivation
— experimental skills in optics and material preparation
— familiarity with the broader field of low-dimensional van der Waals materials
— ready-to-use and up-to-date knowledge of spectroscopy and microscopy
— experience with strain engineering and hybrid heterostructures
— excellent command of English language
