Hamburg, Deutschland Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY Vollzeit

Limited: 3 years | Starting date: earliest possible | ID: FSMA056/2023 | Deadline: 28.02.2024 | Full-time/Part-time

DESY, with more than 3000 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

DESYs Laser Science and Technology Group is responsible for research, development and operations of high-power ultrafast lasers for DESYs large scale facilities. High power, high repetition rate ultrafast lasers are essential for generating and manipulating of electron beams and for most of the science experiments at the X-Ray Free Electron Laser facilities FLASH and European XFEL. At European XFEL we are currently launching an R&D project with the goal to produce attosecond soft
- and hard X-ray pulses. For this project, a carrier-envelope phase stable, few cycle, high energy, high-repetition rate ultrafast laser needs to be overlapped with an high energy electron beam. One challenging task is to transport this few cycle CEP stable laser to the interaction point with low distortions in spectral and temporal phase and to develop the necessary diagnostics. For R&D on this topic we are seeking a highly-motivated, seif-driven laser scientist to join the team.
- About your role:
- Analyze and study beam transport for high energy few cycle ultrafast laser systems and develop a laser beam-transport line for the European XFEL
- Develop on-line diagnostics for spatial and temporal phase of ultrafast laser beams
- Develop and test novel ultrabroadband mirror coatings for few cycle ultrafast lasers
- Perform R&D on few-cycle CEP stable ultrafast lasers and attosecond X-ray generation
- Good reasons to join:
Look forward to a unique working environment on our international research campus. We attach particular importance to appreciative cooperation and the well-being of our DESY employees. Gender equality is an important aspect for us. To support work life balance we offer flexible working hours, variable part-time, job-sharing models and participation in mobile work (50%). You will benefit from our family-friendly and collegial atmosphere, our established health management and occupational pension provision. As a public funded employer, we offer you a secure workplace and facilitate your individual career with our comprehensive training and development opportunities. Remuneration is according to the regulations of the TV-AVH. DESY offers its employees a financial supplement for a German job ticket at both locations.
- About you:
- Ph.D. in physics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering or equivalent qualification
- Experience with ultrafast optics design and CEP control
- Experience with spatial and temporal phase diagnostics of ultrafast laser beams
- Experience with CAD, laser simulation and optics design tools
- Experience in controls system integration and programming skills (Python) are a plus
