The posting

Your mission

  • Develop solid-state nanopore devices for detecting individual molecules, opening new possibilities for research and diagnostic applications.
  • Design and investigate novel nanostructures with microfluidics to improve device functionality and sensing performance.
  • Develop integrated nanodevices that connect nanoscale sensing elements with practical measurement systems.
  • Fabricate and characterize devices using semiconductor processing technologies, including electron beam lithography and reactive ion etching.
  • Explore how device geometry, materials, and surface properties influence single-molecule detection.
  • Collaborate with an interdisciplinary team, publish your findings, and present your research at scientific conferences.

Your profile

  • A Master’s degree in physics, chemistry, nanoscience, or a related discipline.
  • A strong interest in nanotechnology, experimental research, and the development of new sensing devices.
  • Experience with semiconductor processing technologies or cleanroom fabrication is welcome.
  • Knowledge of nanofabrication, materials characterization, surface chemistry, or electrical measurements would be an advantage.
  • A hands-on approach, analytical thinking, and the motivation to develop and test your own ideas.
  • The ability to work independently and collaborate across disciplines.
  • Good communication skills in English, communication skills in German are welcome.

Why us?

  • Pursue a PhD in the nano-bio research group of KSI’s director Prof. Dr. Ulrich Rant, awarded by TU Dresden, one of Germany’s Universities of Excellence
  • Join the Kurt-Schwabe-Institute for Sensor Technologies and contribute to research at the interface of nanotechnology, physical chemistry, and bioanalytics.
  • Develop technologies with applications ranging from fundamental single-molecule research to future diagnostic systems.
  • Gain practical expertise in semiconductor processing, nanodevice integration, and advanced measurement techniques.
  • Take ownership of your research, from designing novel nanostructures to evaluating their sensing performance.
  • Work in an interdisciplinary environment with close links to TU Dresden and opportunities for scientific collaboration.
  • We offer compensation according to TV-L E13 (75%) and the use of the KSI-shuttle between Dresden and Meinsberg.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
