Student Assistant (m/f/x) (max. 10hrs./week)

The Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1415 “Chemistry of Synthetic Two-Dimensional Materials” is seeking to employ one student per project as

Student Assistant (m/f/x) (max. 10hrs./week)

starting as soon as possible. The position is limited to 12 months. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz – WissZeitVG) as well as the Higher Education Act in the Free State of Saxony (Sächsisches Hochschulgesetz – SächsHSG) in conjunction with the TdL guidelines (collective bargaining association for the German federal states) for Student Assistants and Research Assistants dated February 28, 2024.

About the CRC 1415: The CRC 1415 aims for the development of novel synthetic two-dimensional materials (2DMs) and bridges the research areas A) material synthesis, B) structural and property characterization, and C) theory. In terms of the synthesis of 2DMs, the CRC is focusing on 1) the bottom-up synthesis of layer-stacked crystalline materials followed by exfoliation into thin nanosheets and assembly into 2D heterostructures and 2) the direct synthesis of single-layer or few-layer 2DMs and their 2D heterostructures via solution-based construction. Furthermore, the CRC focus on developing new or optimizing established in-situ and ex-situ characterization methods to analyse the structure and physical and chemical properties of the synthetic 2DMs. Finally, the CRC strives to develop and use advanced theoretical methods and models to predict the 2DM’s formation and their chemical and physical properties. Additionally, the central project “Sustainable Research Data Management” elevates systematic managing and handling of research data. For detailed information about all research projects and the principal investigators involved, the candidates should visit the CRC website (https://tu-dresden.de/mn/chemie/sfb1415) or contact the program office (crc1415@tu-dresden.de).
