Duesseldorf, Deutschland Universität zu Köln Vollzeit

Applications are invited for a doctoral student under supervi
- sion of Prof Lucas Labadie at the Institute for Astrophysics of
the University of Cologne, Germany. The position is offered
in the context of the renewal of the project NAIR (“novel
astronomical instrumentation through photonic reformat
- ting”), a collaboration of the University of Cologne, the
Durham University in the UK and the Leibniz-Institute-for
- Astrophysics-Potsdam. NAIR will enable significant progress
in the deployment on-sky of innovative photonic-based solu
- tions for long-baseline interferometry and integrated field
spectroscopy, targeting primarily the near
- and mid-infrared
spectral range.

YOUR TASKS
- The doctoral student, mainly based at the at the Institute for
Astrophysics in Cologne (formerly I. Physics Institute), will pursue
a research project to develop, characterize and optimize so-called
discrete beam combiners (DBC) for astronomical interferometry.
These integrated photonic devices will be manufactured by ultrafast
laser writing (ULI) in close collaboration with the Politecnico di
Milano/CNR in Italy. The major steps foreseen for this project are:
the ULI fabrication of the devices during dedicated research stays
at the Politecnico di Milano/CNR; the extended characterization of
the devices at the astrophotonics lab at the University of Cologne
using the existing infrared interferometric bench; the final on-sky
test at the CHARA interferometric facility, California, in close
collaboration with the AIP/Potsdam. The results will be published
in peer-review journals and contribute to the PhD thesis.

YOUR PROFILE
- The applicant should have a Master of Science (MSc) in
experimental physics, engineering or a related discipline.
associated with astronomical instrumentation, optics,
photonics and lab demonstrators. A first experience with
the technique of ultrafast laser writing is an asset. The
working language is English.

WE OFFER
- The opportunity to work on a new topic in
a highly international environment
- A diverse working environment with equal opportunities
- Support in balancing work and family life
- Extensive advanced training opportunities
- Occupational health management offers
- Flexible working time models
- Opportunity to work remotely

The University of Cologne is committed to equal opportuni
- ties and diversity. Women are especially encouraged to apply
and will be considered preferentially in accordance with the
Gender Equality Act of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia
(LGG NRW). We also expressly welcome people with disabili
- ties/special needs or of equal status.

The position is available immediately on a part-time basis
(25,89 hours per week). The offer is for a fixed-term position
and an initial period of two years, with a possible renewal
for one extra year. If the applicant meets the relevant wage
requirements and personal qualifications, the salary will be
based on remuneration group 13 TV-L of the pay scale for
the German public sector.
