Facility manager Jobs in Großrosseln

INM is an internationally leading center for interdisciplinary research on hybrid materials, and their exploitation in materials-based solutions for a sustainable world with increasing digitalization and medical needs. Our research integrates materials chemistry, biological processes, physical analysis, and process engineering. We aim for leadership in the fields of opto-interactive, electro-integrative and bio-intelligent material systems. In these areas, we actively seize opportunities to transfer our scientific results into materials-driven innovation.

The engineering of hybrid materials requires understanding of interfacial phenomena through in-depth characterization of the physicochemical properties of interfaces at different length scales and in-operando conditions. Electron Microscopy provides high-resolution structural and compositional analysis of our materials, and is pivotal in supporting cutting-edge research at the institute.
