13 PhD & 1 Postdoctoral Positions, GraFOx Leibniz Science Campus, Germany (2016-2017)

Oxides are among the materials with the widest span of physical properties. They can be insulators, semiconductors, metallic conductors and superconductors, magnetic materials, ferro-/antiferro- and other dielectrics. Thereby, oxides are a materials class with high potential for novel electronic devices and energy applications. Our ScienceCampus will initially focus on the emerging class of sesquioxides (In2O3, Ga2O3 and Al2O3) and their alloys, while the more complex and versatile class of perovskites, e.g. SrTiO3, LaAlO3, BaSnO3 will increasingly be addressed in due course.

Leibniz ScienceCampus GraFOx unites activities in crystal growth, epitaxy, theory, and fundamental physical investigations. We bring together our passion, expertise and research facilities to explore and create oxide systems for new generations of electronic devices. The Leibniz ScienceCampus GraFOx seizes the unique chance to fuse excellent individual activities and competences on oxides in five partner institutions based in Berlin.

We are looking for 13 PhD students and one Postdoc for research work at the Paul-Drude-Institut für Festkörperelektronik (PDI), the Leibniz Institute for Crystal Growth, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the Technische Universität Berlin, and the Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft in Berlin. All announced projects are located within the field of physics. We are seeking highly motivated young researchers with a Master (PhD) in Physics or a closely related field.

Outstanding applicants will be invited for recruitment during the GraFOx kick-off meeting in Berlin that will take place in the first half of July.
