- Student - Optical investigation of hybrid ferromagnetic / semiconducting 2D-heterostructures

The PDI is at the forefront of growth of magnetic layered materials. PDI's spectroscopy department is expanding its efforts in the investigation of novel 2D heterostructures based upon these ferromagnets. Therefore, the PDI offers a PhD position to strengthen the research towards 2D hybrid materials.

The PhD-student will focus on optical spectroscopy experiments to investigate novel 2D heterostructures composing ferromagnetic (FM) and semiconducting (SC) materials with special focus on the interlayer twist. They will strongly collaborate with colleagues at PDI and within the FVB, to partake in the design and fabrication of samples, as well as to gain insights from complementary methods.

**Your responsibilities**
- Fabrication of heterostructure samples
- Optical spectroscopy measurements
- Data analysis and interpretation
- Manuscript preparation and presentation at conferences
- Pursuing a doctoral degree in physics

**Your profile**
- Master degree in physics or related
- Background in experimental condensed-matter physics
- Hands-on experience in optical spectroscopy
- Skills in construction and alignment of optical setups is a plus
- Skill and patience in performing challenging experimental work
- Good communication skills and the spirit to work in an interdisciplinary and diverse team

**Position and salary**
This position is available from October 15, 2024 and is limited to a 3-year period.

Salary and benefits are according to the Treaty for German public service (TVöD Bund) to a level of E13 (75%), taking work experience and special professional skills into account.

**What we offer**
- Modern laboratories with a wide range of experimental techniques
- Supportive environment with experts for various scientific sub-fields
- International and culturally diverse community
- Location in the heart of Berlin with excellent public transport connections
- a subsidized travel ticket
- Possibility to participate in professional development programs

**About PDI**
The Paul Drude Institute is part of the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. and a member of the Leibniz Association. The institute carries out basic and applied research at the nexus of materials science, condensed matter physics, and device engineering.

**Inclusive & equal opportunity employer**
- and life-conscious working environment.

**How to apply**

Your documents should include
- a dedicated cover letter
- CV
- diploma(s) and transcript(s)
- up to 2 references (incl. contact details)
