Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany invites online application for multiple fully funded PhD positions in various research areas. Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n Changes and reactions of matter require the motion of atoms and electrons from initial to final positions. This happens within femtoseconds for atoms and within attoseconds for electron densities. The method of ultrafast electron diffraction allows to visualize such processes in all four dimensions of space and time. This is made possible by the picometer-sized de Broglie wavelength of keV-electrons, resulting in a \u20184D-movie\u2019 of atoms\/electrons in motion (see Figures). However, only such dynamics can be probed that can also be initiated. Currently, femtosecond Ti:Sa lasers and their harmonics are used, but these are not well suited to initiate many of the most interesting motions, especially electronic processes. Infrared and terahertz fields are required there.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Nanophotonics has revolutionized optics by controlling light propagation on length scales far below the optical diffraction limit, enabling breakthrough applications in energy harvesting, beam shaping, and few-molecule biodetection. To push the limits of light-matter coupling, the project will combine an emerging class of all-dielectric optical metasurfaces [Science 360, 1105 (2018)] with artificial intelligence (AI) methods for nanophotonic design and data analysis [Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 58, 14810 (2019)]. Working at the intersection of nanotechnology, machine learning, and biospectroscopy, the successful applicant will use state-of-the-art computational and experimental infrastructure to realize new optical sensing platforms with broad applications from fundamental biophysics to medical diagnostics.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Follow FellowshipBard for daily updates! <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Facebook<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Twitter<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Linkedin<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n The research at Prof. Feldmann\u2019s Chair (PhoG) focuses on understanding and applying the interaction of tailored nanosystems with light. Our mission is to synthesize novel solution-based semiconductor and metal nanocrystals, which are tailored to provide optimized functionalities specifically addressing applications as efficient light emitters, solar energy converters, sensors as well as diagnostic and therapeutic tools. Our major goal is to carry out advanced optical spectroscopy studies to gain a detailed understanding of optically induced charge carrier dynamics such as relaxation, recombination, charge separation, energy transfer and the initiation of photochemical reactions.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The phenomenon of Faraday effect, broadly used in light diodes (or optical isolators), relies on the fact that light behaves differently when propagating in opposite directions through a material with a nonvanishing Verdet constant. The light unreciprocity in this case comes from the magnetic properties of the Faraday material used in the optical isolator, when under action of an external magnetic field. 1- and 2D waveguides presenting unreciprocal light propagation can be very useful in projecting photonic circuits with new functionalities. Similarly, the design of metasurfaces with unreciprocal light properties can be important in the design of new sensors and platforms for investigating nonlinear phenomena, like lasing. The investigation of this subject paves the way to the study of chiral nanostructures. The project will focus on theoretical studies of light unreciprocity in various kinds of optical structures and on the fabrication and characterization of the most promising ones.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Although the use of polymeric platforms in integrated (on-chip) photonic devices is extremely interesting, it is still seldom reported. In fact, there are only a few studies in this direction on structures fabricated by two-photon polymerization, which contrasts to the number of similar studies in semiconductor structures. In this project one aims at fabricating polymeric devices via two-photon polymerization for integrated optics, mainly using the Nanoscribe facility full accessible to the host group. Not only linear optical processes will be exploited, but also nonlinear ones, nevertheless using moderate input\/excitation power levels. This is possible due to the high confinement degree of the electromagnetic field and long interaction lengths in the fabricated micro- and nanostructures, as the cases of waveguides and microresonators. <\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nanophotonics has led to a huge progress in understanding of light\u2013matter interaction many approaches have been paving the way to full control of light at the nanoscale. By nanostructuring diverse materials (metal\/plasmonic, dielectric, critical media etc\u2026), one aims at nanoscale controlling of amplitude, phase and polarization of the electromagnetic field, possibly leading to diverse application possibilities, like in biosensing, quantum and nonlinear optics, wavefront shaping, data storage and displays. For example, recent progress in dielectric metasurfaces allows the design and fabrication of flat optics devices that show potential to replace conventional bulk optics. One important approach is micro- and nanoscale patterning of nanophotonic systems designed to work at optical frequencies ranging from the UV to the mid-infrared regions results in building blocks which geometries and arrangement can be set or reconfigurable after fabrication.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The reactivity of plasmonic systems is deeply influenced by the dynamics and interplay of photons, plasmon-polaritons, carriers, phonons, and molecular states. These degrees of freedom can affect the reaction rates, the product selectivity, or the spatial localization of a chemical reaction. Final understanding of these processes requires the emergence of new techniques that can explore these systems at the single particle level. Moreover, rational design and synthesis of plasmonic colloidal photo and electrocatalysts need to consider all these energy transfer pathways. We are looking for candidates that can help us towards these ends.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The goal of this PhD projectis to analyze the MAX DOAS data in combination with the additional sensor data from the other instruments in order to analyze the distribution of NO2 in Munich. Additionally, the mobile MAX DOAS will be used on measurement campaigns. Part of the thesis will be organizing new measurement campaign, but also to analyze the data from past campaigns. This includes mobile measurements on the highway, monitoring locations in the outskirts of Munich for comparison with the city center measurements, but also a campaign where we installed the MAX DOAS on a zeppelin. The derived profile information has tobe validated using alternative measurement techniques, e.g. in-situ sensors on a drone.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are looking for a highly motivated doctoral student who will dissect molecular andfunctional aspects of tumor cell dissemination in HNSCC with our group. The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor EGFR is a signaling active receptor that is highlyexpressed in HNSCC and that serves as a therapeutic target for adjuvant therapy. Ourgroup reported that EGFR has dual function in HNSCC in that it can induce eitherproliferation or EMT depending on the strength and duration of activation (Pan et al. PLoS Biology 2018). Further, we defined the EMT transcription factor SLUG as a potential regulator of EMT in HNSCC that is activated by EGFR signaling (Pan et al. PLoS Biology 2018; Schinke et al. Molecular Oncology 2021).<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Increasing studies are warning that the risk of flooding in coastal megacities is rapidly rising, especially in the fast developing Asia, due to the overlapping effects of climate change and strong urbanization. While different adaptation measures are currently debated by various authorities, getting a detailed understanding of whether, where and how cities are growing within or into hazard-prone areas is an urgent prerequisite for assessing future risk trajectories and informing decision making. It is meanwhile observed that human societies can certainly manage floods\u2019 impacts and learn to live at flood prone areas, i.e., human societies have a capacity of resilience to floods and their impacts. Recent studies indicated that, among others, urban growth models, agent-based models and social hydrological models as well as stakeholder networks are powerful tools to capture both the physical climate changes and the social urbanization effects. <\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In our research program we strive to achieve synthetic control over the creation of functional nanostructures and investigate their physical properties. Periodic porous materials such as templated mesoporous materials, metalorganic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks offer a multitude of opportunities to create such nanostructures. This is based on their compositional and topological diversity, the well-defined dimensions of their nanoscale pore systems, and the great variety of possible interface design within the pore system and on the external surface. In addition to the porous material itself, the nanoscale morphology of such materials is of particular interest, as it provides an important tool to impart specific properties and functions. <\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Stroke is known to induce pronounced neuroinflammation and infiltration of peripheral immune cells4,5 . Besides the local inflammatory responses in the brain, stroke does also alter the peripheral immune homeostasis6-8. Although neuroinflammation and the role of different cell types are well described, the understanding of peripheral immune alterations needs further investigations. To date, it is known that the peripheral immune alterations appear to be multiphasic. An acute immune activation7 can cause subacute immunosuppression9 and a state of chronic immune alterations challenging comorbidities, such as atherosclerosis8. It is of importance to have reliable surrogate marker to prevent these severe immune reactions, which increase the susceptibility for infections and risk of recurrent ischemic events in stroke patients.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Macromolecular drugs such a DNA, RNA or protein therapeutics promise to revolutionize our ability to treat diseases at the molecular level. However, the efficient and specific delivery of these large biomolecules to specific tissues and cell types is still a largely unsolved problem. Currently, the most promising delivery vehicles are lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), but their ability to specifically deliver drugs to organs other than the liver remains limited1. Here, we plan to develop methods to accelerate the in vivo testing of LNP formulations in preclinical models to more efficiently find organ and cell type specific delivery vehicles. <\/span><\/p>\n1.
