Research Associate, Electrochemical Sensors | Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeit (all genders) im Bereich elektrochemischer Sensoren

Job Summary

This scientific position, based in Cottbus, focuses on the research and development of innovative sensory solutions for continuous fluid analysis, specifically utilizing electrochemical sensors, such as chemFET-based systems. Day-to-day responsibilities include conducting comprehensive literature reviews and experiments to advance adapted sensor technologies, optimizing sensor modules, and developing and integrating ion-selective layers to improve selectivity and sensitivity. You will be instrumental in constructing, characterizing, and validating sensor prototypes both in the laboratory and under real-world conditions, including analyzing sensor signals and building test rigs for complete measurement systems. A key component of the role involves documenting and publishing research findings, preparing scientific publications, and ultimately writing a doctoral thesis. Candidates must hold a Master's degree in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering, possess strong foundational knowledge in solid-state sensor technology, and demonstrate fluent proficiency in both German and English.
