Beschreibung:
In Division C Nonlinear processes in condensed matter of the Max Born Institute we are seeking (a) a highly motivated PhD student and (b) an experienced postdoc for experiments in the novel and exciting field of "Femtosecond x-ray diffraction" which combines the ultrafast time-resolution of lasers with the exact structural information of x-ray diffraction, in order to “see atomic structures move”.

The project aims at understanding fundamental microscopic mechanisms which underlie ultrafast reversible structural changes of crystalline solids. The focus will be on (i) coherent dynamics of phonons in nano-structures, (ii) phase transitions in solids with correlated ions (e.g. ferroelectrics) or electrons (e.g. high-transition temperature superconductors) , and (iii) ultrafast photodynamics in layered molecular assemblies. We use a novel laser-based plasma source for hard x-ray pulses which works at a repetition rate of 1 kHz.

The project is supported by the German Research Council (DFG) through the priority program SPP1134. Cooperations exists with other research groups within the priority program and beyond in an international framework. Further information is available at (http://www.mbi- berlin.de/ de/research/ projects/ 3-04/).
Payment is according to the German salary rules for the public service. The duration of the part-time position is 3 years.
