Oberkochen, Deutschland Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation Vollzeit

You are thrilled by both conceptual questions and experimental work in the laboratory as well as the optimization and further development of components for high-power fiber lasers and would you like to help advance the state of the art in fiber lasers? You are a team player, yet willing to meet some tough challenges on your own? You wish to obtain a doctor degree or are interested in post-doc studies? Moreover, you do not mind being involved in projects with defence-related background?

**What you will do**
- You will develop, investigate and optimize fiber components and designs for high-power fiber laser architectures in the fluoride and silica material system and in the combination of both materials in the spectral range > 1.5 µm
- You will calculate, simulate and optimize fiber components (pump couplers, wavelength-division multiplexers, filters, mode-field adapters, cladding mode strippers etc.) for the use with multi-clad fibers, polarization-maintaining fibers and novel fiber geometries.
- You will contribute to the scientific investigation of fiber lasers to evaluate different fiber laser architectures in a broad team of experts in the field of photonic components, laser sources and nonlinear converters. You will work independently on projects in the field of fiber design and structure research and write reports and publications in English, or if possible, German language.**What you bring to the table**
- Degree (diploma/master) in physics, electrical engineering or equivalent disciplines
- Knowledge and relevant professional experience in simulation techniques and programs to model modal structures and thermal effects in fibers (COMSOL Multiphysics, modal solvers, etc.). Knowledge and relevant professional experience in fiber preform manufacturing or fiber drawing and basic knowledge in fiber lasers would be of advantage.**What you can expect**
- Free space for personal scientific development and the opportunity to push forward issues and projects on your own initiative
- Excellent, state-of-the-art technical equipment with partially not commercially available equipment
- A motivated team ensuring mutual inspiration owing to the interdisciplinary composition
- A wide range of further training
- Family-friendly conditions (flexible working hours, home-office regulations in line with the requirements of the position, etc.)
