Scientific Assistant: Nanoscale magnetic phenomena generated using ions and femtosecond laser pulsing

The Department of Magnetism is looking for a Scientific Assistant (f/m/d) to pursue research in nanoscale magnetic phenomena generated using ions and femtosecond laser pulsing. The position is funded by the DFG and is suitable for either a PhD or a Postdoc, depending on qualifications. You will build on recent observations of local magnetic property changes caused by atomic rearrangements in thin film alloys (see, eg., Advanced Functional Materials 34 (2024)13, 2311951). Your task will be to gain insights into the mechanisms that lead to the activation of ferromagnetic order through rigorous experimental studies as well as simulations. Proof-of-principle studies to observe the response of generated spin-textures to magnetic fields and electrical currents will be carried out.
