Activities and responsibilities
The focus of the activity lies in the research and development of laser-based microstructuring methods for the targeted functionalization of metallic surfaces. The aim is to specifically adjust wettability with respect to oils through suitable surface structures, as well as to influence friction and wear properties (tribology). This includes the planning and execution of laser processes for microstructuring, the systematic investigation of the relationships between process parameters, resulting surface topography and functional properties, as well as the development and setup of suitable experimental and analysis environments. A further essential component of the activity is the comprehensive characterization of the generated surfaces with regard to topography, wettability behavior and tribological properties using appropriate measurement and testing methods. The project is carried out in close cooperation with the Technische Universität Wien.
Qualification profile
- university degree appropriate to the field of activity
- experience in the fields of materials engineering and/or materials science, as well as in conducting scientific projects
- if possible, experience in project coordination
- flexibility with regard to tasks
- very good German and English language skills (C1), both written and spoken
- experience in the field of laser technology is an advantage
