10 PhD Positions, Fraunhofer IOF, Germany (2017)

The Fraunhofer-Insititute of Applied Optics and Precision Engineering and the Institute of Applied Physics of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena act in a strategic partnership in the framework of the »Fraunhofer High Performance Center Photonics«. The High Performance Center is embedded in the Abbe School of Photonics and develops innovative solutions with light for important emerging fields and supports their realization and application in science, economy and society. The High Performance Center links application-oriented research and innovative together with scientific excellent fundamental research for tailoring light – beginning from the generation, manipulation to the application.

The Fraunhofer Graduate Research School of Applied Photonics will be established in Jena and comprises the following topics:
- optical instrumentation from EUV to MIR in the areas biology and environment
- manipulation, preparation and conditioning of organic and anorganic micro- and nanoparticles with light
- core technologies for optical instrumentation: micro and nanoopics, micro-fluidics and smart sensing
- fiber laser and their applications
- highly dynamic sensors
- projection and imaging systems of the next generation
