PhD position in Femtosecond lattice and spin dynamics in Antiferromagnets, FHI, Berlin, Germany (Deadline: 15.11.2025)
Your responsibility
Experimental work is done in a team environment. The applicant is then expected to pursue their research work independently.
- Conduct ultrafast experiments in the group’s labs on on a self-defined research topic
- Take part in the team’s experiments (locally and in international facilities)
- Pursue independent research on acquired results: data analysis, interpretation, communication (e.g. publications) , presentation (international conferences)
Your profile
- Successfully completed university degree (Master, Diplom or equivalent) in physics or a very related field.
- Good knowledge of German and/or English required; willingness to acquire the missing language skills.
- Ability to work independently as well as in a team environment is desired
- Programming skills: Matlab, Python etc.
We are looking for highly motivated, curious, and enthusiastic, researchers with excellent academic records and strong interests in fundamental materials’ physics, ultrafast science, and their potential intersection. BSc or MSc level research experience in one of the following fields is an advantage:
- Crystallography and diffraction methods (X-ray, electrons, or Neutrons)
- Femtosecond lasers or ultrafast science
- Magnetism
- Optical or THz research
- Phonon-related studies (e.g. Raman)
