PhD POSITION (F/M/X) FOR PLASMA-FLUID INTERACTIONS PLASMA SOURCE CONCEPTS

For our research group Plasma Source Concepts we are looking to recruit as of 1st June 2022 for our location in Karlsburg (near Greifswald) an enthusiastic candidate for the

PhD POSITION (F/M/X) FOR PLASMA-FLUID INTERACTIONS
PLASMA SOURCE CONCEPTS

Fixed term contract for 3 years / Part-time appointment (26,6 hours/week) / Target salary: TV-L/E13


YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
You will design a gas flow test-rig from scratch and together we will advance towards a deeper understanding of the complex interaction between cold atmospheric plasma discharges (e.g. for medical application) and the surrounding fluid(s). Your experiments and your test-rig are aiming to be one-of-a-kind; using robotics, mechatronics, automation, measurements techniques and AI for an integral approach. This challenge is far from normal and so are you.

Your main responsibilities will be:
- You design, build and operate a multi-purpose gas flow test facility with integrated control-loops and adaptable interfaces for multiple experiments.
- You use your setup to take the first step into a deeper understanding of plasma discharge/ fluid interaction using proven in-house plasma sources.
- You correlate your observations with modeling results.
- You get familiar with top-notch measurement techniques, such as PIV, Fast-framing, robotics & advanced control-loops.
- You interact with an interdisciplinary team from physicists to medical stuff including the presentation of scientific results.
- You present your scientific results on scientific conferences and publish them in peer-reviewed journals.

Goals you will reach after 3 years:
- Interaction of plasma and gasflow measured, understood and published via papers and on topical conferences
- Expert in optical imaging of plasma and gas flow interaction
- PhD thesis submitted
- Ready for an interesting PostDoc Position, either with us or one of our many international partners
