PhD position in physical chemistry

About Us

Our group ‘Dynamic Spectroscopy’ at the Department of Chemistry, School of Natural Sciences, TU Munich, specializes in time-resolved spectroscopy to tackle challenges in photophysics and photochemistry as well as in material sciences. ( We work with (time-resolved) fluorescence, excitation and absorption spectrometers. We have installed three separate amplified fs laser system as the primary light source for transient absorption and multidimensional spectroscopy.

Requirements

• A master’s degree in chemistry or physics
• Experience with ultrafast spectroscopy and non-linear optics
• Ability to work with and inspire students
• Ability to work in an international environment
• Ability to work with specialists from other fields, such as theoretical physics and synthetic chemistry, in an interdisciplinary project

Tasks

• Construct and maintain a novel experiment for multidimensional femtosecond fluorescence excitation spectroscopy (2D-FLEX, see
• Work with others to investigate molecular liquid state samples provided by other team members.
• Contribute to the teaching activities of the group.
