Post-doc position: Synthesis of bulk rare-earth free magnetic material

Permanent magnets are crucial components for (green) energy technologies. This project aims to develop a new processing technology for rare-earth element free magnets by combining an innovative manufacturing technology (severe plastic deformation) and advanced microstructural and functional characterization techniques. The successful candidate will be part of a team whose research activities focus on the synthesis of bulk nanostructured magnetic materials by severe plastic deformation. The focus of the work will be on the synthesis of rare-earth free magnetic materials. The research activities of the postdoctoral research assistant will comprise the entire process from the synthesis to the in-depth microstructural characterization in combination with simultaneous measurements of functional properties.
