Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d) Scientific Detectors (NIR and VIS)

To strengthen Astrophotonics (innoFSPEC), we are looking for   Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d) Scientific Detectors (NIR and VIS) The researcher will undertake development of scientific detectors for astronomical spectrographs, in particular, assemble detector ROICs (e.g for Large Saphira and H2RG), and in collaboration with Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics (IHP) develop photonic-chip to detector optics for operation in cryogenic environment. The position offers the unique opportunity to assemble, integrate and test the astrophotonic instruments as per ESO standards, leading to first-light on-sky demonstrations as well as adjacent applications.

  Your tasks Integration, assemble, and characterization of scientific detectors for Astronomy Characterization of H2RG, Large Saphira, or similar detectors using ESO NGCII or Rosella ROIC Explore adjacent applications through technology transfer Support the research activities of PhD students and contribute to peer-reviewed publications, patents, and conference papers.   What you bring to the table Essential: PhD in astronomy, astrophysics, instrumentation, electronics or in related fields.
