PhD Position in Perovskite Nanomaterials Synthesis and Characterization at University of Rostock
University of Rostock is advertising a
PhD-oriented Research Assistant position
in the
Institute of Physics
, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, within the working group of
Nanostructures and Nanomaterials
and the collaborative research center
SFB 1477 LiMatI
.
The project focuses on
physics, chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology
, and especially the
synthesis and characterization of perovskite nanomaterials
. The advertised work includes colloidal chemistry of nanomaterials, development of new synthetic routes for quasi-two-dimensional semiconductor nanomaterials, and detailed characterization using
TEM, SEM, AFM, XRD, TCSPC, transient absorption, and UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy
. The role also involves building optical research setups, participating in seminars and workshops, publishing results, and contributing to teaching in experimental physics.
This is a
temporary, funded research assistant position
starting
01.07.2026
and ending
31.12.2029
, with
30 hours/week
and remuneration at
pay group 13 TV-L
. The post is explicitly tied to scientific qualification toward a
doctorate
, so it is effectively a PhD opening rather than a postdoctoral or master's call.
Eligibility highlights:
applicants should hold a completed university degree (master’s, diploma, state exam, or equivalent) in physics, chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, or a related field, with good results. Strong English skills are mandatory, and prior experience in colloidal synthesis, spectroscopy, or electron microscopy is preferred.
Deadline:
2026-05-21.
Contact:
Prof. Dr. Christian Klinke ([email protected]).
Note: the LinkedIn poster appears to be sharing the opportunity, but the actual academic contact and hiring unit are at the University of Rostock.
