The uptake and inventory of hydrogen isotopes in a deuterium-tritium thermonuclear fusion reactor, especially the extremely expensive and radioactive tritium, must be stringently limited for the sake of operation safety and cost efficiency.
Your Job:
- Responsible scientist for the operation of the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) device
- Upgrade and development of the device for future projects
- Research on fusion relevant materials regarding composition and functionality
- Collegial cooperation on present topics and development of new projects in the field of material research for fusion applications
- Participation in international conferences (including presenting your research results) and preparation of scientific publications with Peer-Review
