Research Associate for the Project “Cluster of Excellence BlueMat - Exploring Water in Nanochannels under Graphene Confinement” § 28 Subsection 3 HmbHGInstitutionFaculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Natural Sciences, Department of Physics, Center for Hybrid Nanostructures (CHyN)Salary levelStart date01.03.2026 pending approval of external funding, fixed until 28.02.2029 (This is a fixed-term contract in accordance with Section 2 of the academic fixed-term labor contract act [Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz, WissZeitVG]).Application deadline04.01.2026Scope of workpart-timeWeekly hours66,67 % of standard work hours per weekYour responsibilitiesDuties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications. They may also pursue doctoral studies outside of working duties. The project investigates the behavior of water under extreme confinement in solid-state nanochannels sealed by monolayer or bilayer graphene, combining nanofabrication, surface functionalization, and electronic transport analysis. Tasks include: fabrication of nanochannels and integration of graphene membranes as sealing and sensing layers electronic transport and capacitive measurements for monitoring water occupancy and flow spectroscopic characterization (Raman, infrared) to correlate electronic and structural water signatures functionalization and hierarchical modification of graphene using CVD methods and other as well as clean room fabrication collaboration with BlueMat partners (B2.2, B3.1, C2.1, C2.2, C3.2) and contribution to joint publications preparation of manuscripts, participation in BlueMat workshops, and data management according to FAIR principles Your profileA university degree in a relevant field.
