Research Associate / PhD Student | Research Associate / PhD Student (m/f/x)

Job Summary

This research position at the Faculty of Physics, TU Dresden, focuses on the elastic tuning of collective states in Kagome quantum materials. As a Research Associate, you will conduct high-resolution X-ray diffraction and electrical resistivity measurements to characterize quantum states under varying temperatures and uniaxial stress. The role is integrated into the prestigious Cluster of Excellence 'ctd.qmat', offering a collaborative environment between TU Dresden and the University of Würzburg. You will be responsible for practical experimental work, potentially complemented by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. This 75% position is designed for candidates pursuing a PhD, providing intensive mentoring, access to unique experimental facilities, and a three-year contract. The position is ideal for self-driven physicists looking to contribute to cutting-edge condensed matter research in a family-friendly, scientifically vibrant city.
