Postdoctoral Scientist (M/F/div) - Supported by the Ferenc Krausz Fellowship

**Title**: Ultrafast Field-Resolved Infrared Spectroscopy with Enhanced Detection

**Description**:
In a joint effort, the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, the Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich, and the Center for Molecular Fingerprinting Research (CMF) combine cutting-edge femtosecond laser technologies [1-3] with novel electric-field level techniques [4-6] to advance a new type of mid-infrared spectroscopy. The unique systems are developed and utilized by a highly interdisciplinary team of physicists, data scientists, biologists, and clinical personal to identify, via minuscule variations in the infrared response of human blood samples, medical conditions such as cancer.

The position is supported by the Ferenc Krausz Fellowship - one of Max Planck Institute's Nobel Laureate Fellowships awarded to outstanding postdocs. These offer junior scientists a unique insight into the research of the Nobel laureates at the Max Planck Institutes. In addition, the selected postdocs will also profit from the outstanding national and international networks for furthering their careers.

**Qualifications and skills**:
Excellent PhD in physics or a related discipline

Experience with ultrafast lasers and nonlinear optics

Experience with infrared and/or nonlinear spectroscopy is a plus

Strong self-motivation and the ability to solve problems independently

Professional English proficiency

**We offer**:
Stimulating projects with many learning opportunities

Supportive, multi-disciplinary, and highly motivated team

Access to the latest optical technologies and state-of-the-art laboratories

Excellent research and working conditions for building your research career
