Job Opportunity Announcement

The Institute of Applied Physics of the University of Münster offers a position as a

Scientific staff member (PhD-position)

in the framework of the recently established Transregio TRR 61 „Multilevel Molecular Assemblies“ in the area of

Novel organic materials and their optical functionalization

The position is available for 3 years, an extension being possible. Payment will be according to the German TVöD standard E13/2 TV-L. The weekly working time currently is 19 hours and 55 minutes.

In the Transregio TRR61, new material optimization processes resting upon self organization and other nonlinear effects are investigated. In the framework of this project, a deeper understanding of the relations between electronic structure, spatial configuration and charge transport processes will be explored, in order to achieve an optimized electric conductivity of organic materials.

The area of activities will be focused on the synthesis and electronic and optical analysis of these supra molecules, with an emphasis on the optimization of nonlinear optical properties.

The candidate should have expertises in the area of synthesis and optical investigations of polymers and organic supra molecules both experimentally and numerically. A cooperation with our project partners at the Tsinghua University in Beijing is expected. Knowledge in the area of organic molecules is helpful, experiences in nonlinear optics are desirable. The candidate is expected to participate in teaching duties in the Institute of Applied physics during courses.

We expect applications from outstanding individuals having a Master in physics or related fields, with experience in the fields mentioned. Moreover, we expect a high degree of motivation, the ability of self-responsible scientific working as well as good communication and team-working skills.

The University of Münster seeks to increase the proportion of female staff members in the faculty and therefore encourages interested female candidates to apply. Handi-capped candidates with equivalent qualifications will be given preference.

Please address your application (including the usual documents) by December 15th to:

Prof. Dr. Cornelia Denz, Institut für Angewandte Physik (Institute of Applied Physics)

Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Corrensstr. 2/4,

D – 48149 Münster, Germany
