Christoph Tegenkamp

Technische Universität Chemnitz is advertising a PhD position in surface physics and low-dimensional systems within the collaborative research unit FOR 5242 (“Proximity-induced correlation effects in low dimensional systems”). The project is hosted by the Chair of Analytics at Solid Surfaces and focuses on epitaxial graphene on SiC . The successful candidate will work in an interdisciplinary and international research team and carry out research including intercalation experiments , structural characterization , and magnetotransport studies . The post is explicitly intended for scientific qualification leading to a PhD . Location: Chemnitz, Germany. Start date: 1 November 2026. Duration: initially until 31 October 2029, with a possible 1-year extension. Application: Submit a single PDF with the usual documents by 17 August 2026 , referencing “AFKO_Magnetotransport_FOR5242” , to Prof. Dr. Christoph Tegenkamp at Technische Universität Chemnitz. Contact email listed in the post: sandy.kuhn@physik.tu-chemnitz.de.
