The Department of Chemistry and Food Chemistry, Chair of Inorganic Chemistry II, (group of Prof. Dr. Michael Ruck and Prof. Dr. Thomas Doert)invites applications for a

PhD position (E 13 TV-L)

in the field of solid state chemistry

which entails 75 % of the fulltime weekly hours. Employment is expected to begin earliest on November 1, 2014. The position will be offered first until September 30, 2015, with the possibility of an extension to a total of up to 36 months. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz – WissZeitVG).

Tasks: Research within the DFG Research Training Group (Graduiertenkolleg) 1621 “Itinerant magnetism and superconductivity in intermetallic compounds” in the field of solid state chemistry. The successful candidate is expected to participate and to take responsibilities in the exploration, synthesis and characterization of new superconducting and magnetic ordered systems.

The PhD project is embedded in the DFG Research Training Group (Graduiertenkolleg) GRK 1621 at the TU Dresden, in which many researchers from the TU Dresden, the Max-Planck-Institutes for Chemical Physics of Solids and for Complex Systems, the Leibniz-Institute for Solid State Research (IFW Dresden) and the Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory (HLD) at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) cooperate in a coordinated research initiative. Please see http://tu-dresden.de/forschung/dfg1621 for more details.

Requirements: Excellent Diploma or Master’s university degree in Chemistry, Physics or Materials Sciences with focus on solid state research and special skills in synthetic techniques, phase analysis and crystal structure determination. Interest and ability for interdisciplinary research and cooperation with experimental physicists and theorists in the GRK 1621 are expected, as well as proficiency in English language, organizational skills and good computational skills.

Applications from women are particularly welcome. The same applies to disabled people.

Please send your application with curriculum vitae, list of publications if applicable, copy of documentation of the highest academic degree earned and the names and addresses of at least 2 possible references until (stamped arrival date of the university central mail service applies) preferably by email as a single pdf document to: [e-mail] (Please note: We are currently not able to receive electronically signed and encrypted data.) or by post to: TU Dresden, Fakultät Mathematik und Naturwissenschaften, Fachrichtung Physik, Institut für Festkörperphysik, GRK 1621, 01062 Dresden, Germany.

In case of interest please first contact Dr. Anna Isaeva ([e-mail]) and Prof. Thomas Doert ([e-mail]).
