Job description In Germany, refrigeration accounts for 14% of electricity consumption. Cooling on a small scale, as it is required, e.g., in electronic chips, lab-on-chip systems, chemical and biological analysis, is often performed by miniaturization-compatible thermoelectric cooling, which is however rather in-efficient. The search for...

Job description In Germany, refrigeration accounts for 14% of electricity consumption. This proportion is expected to increase steadily in the future. Innovations in cooling technology can therefore make an important contribution to climate and environmental protection. Elastocaloric cooling is an emerging solid-state cooling technology with the...

Job description Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR), also known as Electron Spin Resonance (ESR), is a powerful spectroscopic technique used in various scientific fields. EPR enables the study of unpaired electrons' behavior in molecules and materials, providing valuable insights into their structure and properties. This non-destructive technique is...

Job description Currently, refrigeration and air conditioning currently account for 20% of global energy consumption and contribute to 7.8% of global carbon emissions. That amount is continuously ascending with rapid urbanization. Seeking efficient and decarbonized refrigeration technologies can make an important contribution to carbon neutrality...

Job description Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a characterization/investigation method that provides exquisite information about the chemical composition of a sample. NMR is closely related to another method that is more widely known due to the fact that it is broadly used in hospitals for clinical investigation in humans – magnetic resonance...

Job description The main goal of the master project will be to model and simulate magnetic, diamagnetic as well as inductive levitation micro-actuators in MatLab using the qualitative approach developed by our group jointly in cooperation between IMT and Hefei University of Technology, China. Obtained results of the master thesis will be applied for...

Job description Tools for bioanalytical applications include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and biosensor measurements. They enable heterogeneous assays for the detection of biomolecules in a wide range of applications, such as the detection of disease markers in blood or contaminants in food or environmental samples. The assays are mostly...
