Leipzig University is offering a PhD scholarship in Experimental Physics, focusing on the thermofluidic manipulation of functionalized nanoparticles at chromatographic interfaces. The project is part of a collaborative NSF-DFG initiative with Leipzig, Princeton, and the University of Chicago. The candidate will engage in advanced experiments involving plasmonic substrates and quantum dots, contributing to the development of innovative microfluidic techniques. Ideal applicants will have a Master's degree in Physics, a strong academic record, and experience in optical microscopy or single-molecule detection. Proficiency in English is required, with German as a plus.
