10 / 8 / 24

The Leibniz-Institut für Kristallzüchtung (IKZ) is a leading research institution in the field of science & technology as well as service & transfer of crystalline materials.

Our goal is to enable solutions for pressing societal challenges (e.g. communication, artificial intelligence, climate protection, health, etc.

through modern electronic & photonic technologies. The work covers the entire spectrum from basic and applied research to pre-industrial development and is carried out in cooperation with national and international partners from universities, academies and industry.

The institute is part of the Forschungsverbund Berlin (https : / / www.fv-berlin.de / ) and a member of the Leibniz Association (https : / / www.

leibniz-gemeinschaft.de). You can find more details on the institute webpage : https : / / www.ikz-berlin.de.

PhD student position (m / f / d)

Growth of narrow gap III-V semiconductor bulk crystals by VGF metho d

Job description :

III-V semiconductors are used widely for electronic, optoelectronic and sensor applications. In addition to the use of GaAs and InP, further III-V bulk materials become more and more important.

For example, there is a need for high-quality narrow band gap crystals for infrared applications.

The research tasks include the design and realization of project-specific crystal growth experiments by vertical gradient freeze (VGF) method as well as the physical and structural characterization of theses crystals.

As a member of our group, you will be involved in interdisciplinary European collaborations which reach from raw material synthesis over crystal growth to application in device.

We are looking for a candidate with strong communication skills, the assertiveness to work in an internationally positioned institute, willing to formulate their own scientific ideas.

Requirements :

• Master’s degree in physics, chemistry, materials science or related fields
• Knowledge of semiconductor materials, devices, bulk crystal growth
• Motivation and capability to do scientific work, as well as its documentation and presentation
• Very good knowledge of written and spoken English is required. German language skills are desirable.

What we offer :

The position is limited to three years, an extension for another year is possible. Payment is according to TVöD Bund (75 %) (Collective agreement for the public sector) including the usual social benefits (30 vacation days in a 5-day week, flexible working hours).

The Leibniz-Institut für Kristallzüchtung actively supports a healthy work-life balance and is an equal opportunities employer.

There is equality for applicants of all genders. Female candidates are encouraged to apply and will be given preference if suitably qualified.

Among equally qualified candidates, preference will be given to candidates with disabilities.
