In order to fill a fixed-term position in full-time (39.83 hours/week = 100%) at the earliest possible date, we are looking for 1
The chair of Materials Discovery and Interfaces at the Institute for Materials develops new multifunctional materials by using combinatorial sputtering methods (material libraries) and high-throughput characterization methods. For this purpose, unique experimental facilities are available: 8 combinatorial sputtering systems (inert, reactive, DC, RF, HPPMS,...), in situ characterization methods (plasma diagnostics, e.g. OES), diverse high-throughput characterization methods (EDX, XPS, XRD, functional properties).
**Scope**: full-time
**Duration**: fixed-term, 31.12.2026 (end of project)
**Start**: at the earliest possible date
**Your tasks**:

- Combinatorial synthesis of thin film materials libraries using sputtering
- High-throughput characterization of the thin film materials libraries (EDX, XRD,...)
- Implementing new advanced sputtering and characterization techniques (OES, AES, RHEED)
- Further development of combinatorial fabrication processes towards (semi)autonomous coating processes

**Your profile**:

- Completed studies (Master degree) with very good results in the field of materials science
- Extensive experience in the field of sputtering thin films
- Experience in the field of thin film characterization, e.g. SEM, EDX, XRD,...
- Experience with HPPMS
- Experience with in situ characterization techniques such as optical emission spectroscopy (OES), quartz crystal monitor or Langmuir probe
- Experience in data science literacy and programming knowledge are desirable
- Willingness to work in a clean room
- Experience and interest in publications

**We offer**:
Challenging and varied tasks with a high level of independence, A qualified on-boarding and induction process, Collaboration in a committed and appreciative team, Extensive training and professional development opportunities, A job in the heart of the lively Ruhr metropolitan region with its diverse cultural offerings
**Further information**:
The position is salaried and based on the collective agreement of the Länder (TV-L). If the personal and collective agreement requirements are met, the employee will receive pay grade E13 TV-L.
