The newly established research group will combine ultrafast laser techniques with ion beam technology to investigate ultrafast processes in solid surfaces, which are induced by an ion impact. One major part of the efforts is the development of a pulsed, laser-driven ion source which delivers pulses as short as 1ps. The group is lead by Dr. Richard A. Wilhelm and funded through the START prize of FWF.
We are seeking talents
There are several PhD positions available for excellent students. We also offer Master, Bachelor, and Project Thesis options in the group. Please contact [email address: lastname @ this server · enable javascript to see it] for detailed information.
Funding
The project is supported by FWF START (Y 1174-N36) and by TU Wien (Innovative Projects).
