The Center for Interface-Dominated High Performance Materials is looking for a
Doctoral Researcher (m,f,x) for 3,5 years with 39,83 hours per week, TV-L E13
The Center for Interface-Dominated High Performance Materials (Zentrum für Grenzflächendominierte Höchstleistungswerkstoffe, ZGH) at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum develops new materials through comprehensive understanding and design of material interfaces, exploiting new combinations of structural and functional properties. ZGH is equipped with a set of high-end research equipment for the investigation of surfaces and interfaces of materials, such as atom probe tomography (APT) and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (TEM).
For the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1625 (Atomic-scale understanding and design of multifunctional compositionally complex solid solution surfaces, https://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/crc1625/index.html.en), we are looking for a doctoral researcher (m,f,x) for the project B01 (Accelerated atomic-scale exploration of phase evolution in CCSS systems using combinatorial processing platforms). The aim of this project is to investigate the surface composition and the phase stability of compositionally complex solid solution (CCSS) systems by APT and TEM, and to contribute to achieve the goal of the CRC: mastering surface atom arrangements.
We are looking for a highly motivated scientist (m,f,x) with a strong background in materials science or in a related field with a focus on thermodynamics and kinetics of phase transformations and/or materials characterization. Strong motivation to work independently, effective teamwork, efficient translation of results into scientific publications, and very good communication skills are expected of the future doctoral researcher (m,f,x).

The Ruhr-Universität Bochum is one of Germany’s leading research universities, addressing the whole range of academic disciplines. A highly dynamic setting enables researchers and students to work across the traditional boundaries of academic subjects and faculties. To create knowledge networks within and beyond the university is RUB’s declared aim.
The Ruhr-Universität Bochum stands for diversity and equal opportunities. For this reason, we favour a working environment composed of heterogeneous teams, and seek to promote the careers of individuals who are underrepresented in our respective professional areas. The Ruhr-Universität Bochum expressly requests job applications from women. In areas in which they are underrepresented they will be given preference in the case of equivalent qualifications with male candidates. Applications from individuals with disabilities are most welcome.
