Nonlinear Optics

The Max Born-Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short-Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI), Berlin, Germany, a non-university research institution and member of the Leibniz Association, pursues basic and applied research in ultrafast science applying a large variety of lasers and spectroscopic techniques. For research within a project in the field of the theory of Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics funded by the German Research Association (Deutsche Forschungs Gemeinschaft, DFG) invites applications for a position of a

Postdoctoral Research Associate

to work on theoretical problems in Nonlinear Optics, Photonics and Plasmonics. Such research aims at elucidating new concepts for the generation and amplification of ultrashort pulses in the vacuum ultraviolet by four-wave mixing or of extreme-ultraviolet and attosecond pulses by high-order harmonic generation. Within this research new methods for phasematching by using novel typs of hollow photonic crystal fibers shall be studied. In addition we will investigate the possibility to use plasmonic field enhancements by metal nanoparticles in these processes. The project is associated with the study of similar issues in experimental groups at the MBI. The work will be performed in a team of senior researcher, post doc and PhD student.

Requirements: PhD in physics, experience in ultrafast nonlinear optics and in particular strong background in numerical methods in theoretical physics.

MBI offers a 3-year appointment with a salary according to the German salary scheme for the public sector (TVöD). MBI is an equal oppurtunity employer, applications by female scientists are invited in particular.

Applications with a cv, a description of the research experience, publication list and - if available - recommendation letters should be sent before September 15, 2010 by mail or email to PD Dr. habil. Joachim Herrmann, Max-Born-Institute, Max-Born-Str. 2 a, D-12489 Berlin, Germany, Email jherrman@mbi-berlin.de
