 Vacancy Notice (17.04.2014)

Open PhD and Post-Doc Positions on permanent magnet research

We are looking for some more excellent and highly motivated candidates who 
aspire to work in a challenging and international research environment. 
You should possess a degree in Physics, Materials Science, Inorganic 
Chemistry or Mechanical Engineering. It is necessary that the applicant 
has experience in at least one of the following fields: magnetic and 
structural characterization, metallurgical-, chemical- or thin film 
synthesis or plastic deformation. For the computational positions it is 
essential, that the candidate has experience in micro-magnetic or 
atomistic calculations. Willingness to integrate into an interdisciplinary 
team with diverse backgrounds is essential. Very good command of the 
English language is needed. Knowledge of German is beneficial but not 
necessary. Candidates can apply for one or more positions and indicate 
their preferences.

If you are interested, please contact the coordinator:

------------------------

Materials for permanent magnets usually contain rare earth elements, which
are difficult to obtain and handle. In an effort to reduce the amount of
rare earths needed, we study new materials in terms of their magnetic
properties, especially their magnetic anisotropy. The magnetostriction of 
a material is intimately connected to the magnetic anisotropy; therefore, 
if one knows the magnetostriction tensor, the magnetic anisotropy can be
studied on a fundamental level.
We are looking for a graduate student to build up, calibrate and use a 
setup to measure the magnetostriction tensor on an atomic level, i.e. 
determining the unit cell constants through x-ray diffraction under a 
strong (6 Tesla) magnetic field.
The work should be carried out at the Department of Materials Science of 
the Technical University of Darmstadt (Germany). The ideal start date would be
1.1.2014, with the prospect of obtaining a PhD degree within three years.
