2 PhD Positions in Ultrafast Optical Control of Topological Magnetic Traits

Eindhoven University of Technology is offering two doctoral positions focusing on the ultrafast optical control of topological magnetic textures. The research involves utilizing femtosecond lasers to manipulate skyrmions and other topological structures via time-resolved magneto-optics and advanced imaging techniques. Candidates will also engage in thin-film growth and nanolithography to fabricate specialized samples for optical testing. Successful applicants are expected to conduct rigorous experimental research, collaborate with team members, and contribute to scientific publications.

• Design and execute experiments involving femtosecond laser control of topological magnetic textures
• Perform time-resolved magneto-optical measurements and advanced imaging
• Fabricate magnetic thin films and nanostructures using deposition and nanolithography techniques
• Analyze experimental datasets and develop physical models to interpret optical switching phenomena
• Collaborate with internal and external research partners on joint scientific objectives
• Write peer-reviewed journal articles and present findings at international conferences
