Description

With cutting-edge research in the fields of ENERGY, HEALTH and MATTER, around 1,500 employees from more than 70 nations at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) are committed to mastering the great challenges facing society today.
The Institute for Ion Beam Physics and Materials Research is dedicated to the study of materials and their nanostructures that can be considered for future applications in information technology and are based on electrical, magnetic or optical functionalities.
The Department of Magnetism is looking for a Scientific Assistant (f/m/d) to pursue research in nanoscale magnetic phenomena generated using ions and femtosecond laser pulsing. The position is funded by the DFG and is suitable for either a PhD or a Postdoc, depending on qualifications.
You will build on recent observations of local magnetic property changes caused by atomic rearrangements in thin film alloys (see, eg., Advanced Functional Materials 34 (2024)13, 2311951). Your task will be to gain insights into the mechanisms that lead to the activation of ferromagnetic order through rigorous experimental studies as well as simulations. Proof-of-principle studies to observe the response of generated spin-textures to magnetic fields and electrical currents will be carried out.

Responsibilities
  • Using the extensive research facilities at the HZDR for the preparation and characterization magnetic thin film alloys
  • Observing the magneto-optical as well as structural behaviour of the material under ion and femtosecond laser pulse irradiation
  • Liaising with collaboration partners at LH Mittweida for femtosecond laser experimentation
  • Modelling and analysis of the outcomes and proposing new experiments for exploiting the results
  • Follow-up on promising results with experiments at large-scale facilities
  • Report results in peer-reviewed publications and international conferences and doctoral thesis (for PhD students)
