Specific subject description
The research project concerns development of new as well as advancement of existing laser-diagnostic measurement concepts using ultrashort (femtosecond/picosecond) laser pulses.
Although of fundamental character, the development should have a focus on applications in combustion, plasma, catalysis, gasification/pyrolysis, and diagnostics of nanostructure production. A number of existing laser-spectroscopic methods, non-linear (coherent) techniques in particular, might be significantly advanced by using fs/ps laser pulses. Measurement situations for which only a single window or inspection hole is provided are common in many of the aforementioned applications. Therefore new, so-called single-ended, techniques will be explored, specifically concepts based on backward air lasing and filamentation.
Job specification
Major duties:
• Perform research in which novel measurement concepts based on ultrashort laser pulses are developed with a strong focus on the aforementioned application areas.
• Function as an independent researcher with a high level of attention to detail.
• Analaze and interpret experimental data, and compare with model predictions.
• Communicate research results through publication in scientific peer-reviewed journals and contributions at scientific conferences.
Eligibility requirements
Qualified for the position as postdoctoral fellow is a person who holds a doctorate or a foreign degree that is deemed equivalent to a doctorate and who has completed the degree within the three years prior to the last date for applications, unless there are valid reasons.
Special requirements for this position:
• A PhD in physics, chemistry or related field.
• Demonstrated knowledge of experimental spectroscopy/diagnostics using femtosecond lasers.
• Deomstrated ability to perform independent research, create innovative solutions to address scientific and technical problems.
• Recent record of peer-reviewed scientific publications.
• Demonstrated ability to work both independently and as a member of a team.
• Very good knowledge in written and spoken English.
Assessment criteria
For appointments to postdoctoral fellow, good ability to develop and carry out independent research forms the assessment criteria.
Desirable qualifications:
• Experience from laser/optical diagnostics
• Experimental experience from non-linear optical techniques
• Experience from theoretical modelling of laser-induced phenomena, particlarly from femtosecond lasers
• Experience from combustion diagnostics
• Experience from multi-disciplinary collaborations
• Programming skills
Consideration will also be given to how the applicant through his/her personality, experience and competence is assessed to complement and strengthen the ongoing research at the Division of Combustion Physics.
Application instructions
Applications must contain a cover letter, in which applicants describe themselves and their particular research interests. Applications must also include a CV, a summary of the applicant's PhD thesis, contact details of at least two references, and any other documents that the applicant wishes to refer to.
