The Laboratory for Mesoscopic Systems at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) is looking for a PhD Student in Ultrafast processes in magnetic nanostructures. The lab’s scientific focus of the group is to study artificial spin systems consisting of arrays of magnetically-coupled nanomagnets.
Tasks:
- To conduct outstanding research in the field of ultrafast processes at sub-picosecond timescales in magnetic nanostructures
- To fabricate nanostructures with electron beam lithography
- To study ultrafast processes with a lab-based setup and X-ray free electron lasers
- Perform computer simulations of the magnetization dynamics
Requirements:
- Applicant must hold excellent qualifications with a master degree in Physics, Material Science or related area and enjoy practical work.
- Knowledge of magnetism, X-ray methods, nanofabrication and programming skills for data analysis is beneficial.
- Applicant must like team work and have a flexible approach to working between different laboratories.
Applications:
Submit application online including addresses of referees for the position as a PhD Student (index no. 3701-01).
