Deadline for applications: 5 october 2022.

 

A Ph.D. position is currently open at the Graz University of Technology in Investigation of the recrystallization behavior of Al alloys
using in situ methods in electron microscopy.

Concretely, it will be a position of University assistant for 4 years, 20 hours/week at the Institute of Electron Microscopy and Nanoanalysis, Graz University of Technology.

Content

Within the Ph.D. thesis, a comprehensive understanding of the recrystallization behavior of Al alloys shall be established. For this purpose, in situ heating experiments will be performed both in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and in the transmission electron microscope (TEM). In addition, in situ backscattered electron diffraction (EBSD) will be used with the aim to establish a correlation between precipitation and recrystallization kinetics.

Tasks

  • Characterization of metallic materials
  • Holding of lectures
  • Support of students in the field of electron microscopy
  • Publication and presentation activities
  • Providing SEM equipment


Requirements

  • Degree or diploma in Technical Physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science.
