Doctoral Researcher in Nano-Optics Research Department | Doktorand: in der Forschungsabteilung Nanooptik (m/w/d)

Job Summary

This doctoral researcher position at the Leibniz Institute for Photonic Technologies (Leibniz-IPHT) in Jena offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research on "Light-driven Microdrones." The successful candidate will join a collaborative project focusing on extending the application of micro-drones into three-dimensional space, working closely with a counterpart at the University of Würzburg. Key responsibilities include developing efficient nanomotors using numerical simulations, designing microfluidic chips, contributing to microdrone fabrication, and conducting optical experiments like TERS on biological samples. This role is ideal for a highly motivated individual with a strong background in physics or related fields, eager to push the boundaries of light-driven robotics and engage in interdisciplinary scientific work within a world-class research environment.
