PhD: Rare earth free hard magnetic materials (synthesis & characterization)

The position is based in the internationally renowned Functional Materials Department at TU Darmstadt, Germany which focuses on the development of resource-efficient functional materials. Your tasks within this highly ambitious and possible ground-breaking project will be to investigate the fundamental principles of phase formation and synthesis of rare earth free hard magnetic material. Your work will include use and development of advanced synthesis and characterization techniques and advanced characterization routes to understand their (micro-) structural and magnetic properties.
