PhD Student Position (m/f/d)

Tätigkeitsprofil:

• Growth of 2D-semiconductors, sample fabrication in collaboration with the HUB via layer transfer and lithographic methods.
• Design of plasmonic platforms by performing numerical finite element simulations.
• Application of a set of spectroscopic methods (angular-resolved spectroscopic ellipsometry, Fourier microscopy, spatial-spectral imaging of the luminescence, time-resolved luminescence) to obtain polariton dispersion, assess tuneability of light-matter coupling strength via electrostatic gating, demonstrate the potential to control matter properties.
• Data analysis and simulation via use of classical and quantum mechanical models.
• Presentation of research results in international journals and conferences.
