A PhD student position in experimental laser physics and spectroscopy in the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry, the University of Helsinki, Finland
An opportunity is offered for a graduate student to work on lasers, optical parametric oscillators, and their applications to high-sensitivity trace gas spectroscopy in the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry at the University of Helsinki, Finland. The position is in the Molecular spectroscopy and theoretical chemistry group, which is headed by Prof. Lauri Halonen. The position is available immediately. The salary is based on the university salary system and depends on personal skills and the advancement of the graduate studies.
The successful candidate has studied in spectroscopy, optics, laser technology, physical chemistry, applied physics, or related field. He/she holds a Master's degree or equivalent in science and has both the motivation and abilities to successfully carry out postgraduate studies. Keen interest in the research topic, possible practical experience in experimental laboratory research, and familiarity with optics & optomechanics, electronics, computers & software, vacuum apparatus, etc. are appreciated. While initiative and the ability to perform independently are encouraged, the student is also closely supported and supervised by the research group.
We will provide a chance to develop a deep understanding of a broad range of spectroscopy-related technologies, methods, and science in an established group with excellent facilities at the largest university in Finland. The Molecular spectroscopy and theoretical chemistry group is part of one of the few Finnish Centres of Excellence in Research. The Laboratory of Physical Chemistry is located in the Chemistry Department building in the new Kumpula science campus area in Helsinki.
