PhD position summary/title: PhD Position – Photonics based on SiGeSn heterostructures

The integration of photonics components with electronics on the same microchip may potentially solve the bandwidth bottleneck in modern computers and allow devices with decreased power consumption. Nevertheless, light emission from Si -the material underpinning the whole digital world- is inefficient because of its indirect bandgap. Recently SiGeSn semiconductors, a Si-group alloys proved to be a strong candidate to finally add/extend the Si photonics with Si-based laser sources. Si-Ge-Sn heterostructures have been already tested in optoelectronic devices such as light emitting diodes, field effect transistors or detection pixels in the short-wave infrared range. However, energy efficient electrical pumped lasers, and more complex sensing and imaging devices are still to be demonstrated for practical applications.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position – Multi-Qubit Control

Our team is working on electronics for Quantum Computing (QC) based on integrated circuits (ICs) which combine analog and digital components from modern CMOS technologies. One research focus is the development of ICs for scalable control and read-out of semiconductor quantum bits (qubits).
Up to now most of these electronics have been for single qubit examples but are getting towards larger numbers. Our modeling efforts focus more on the overall research goal of a compact, scalable machine. For implementing a computer, additional hardware components are needed next to control and readout electronics. One example is a digital unit managing and monitoring the control and readout of many qubits. The focus of this research part is the modeling of a scalable electrical unit able to coordinate the operation of larger qubit numbers.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position – Development of a stationary 3D tomography measurement system for high-resolution surveying of soils using georadar

Against the background of global challenges such as climate change and the growing world population, Forschungszentrum Jülich is conducting research with a view to optimizing yields, improving soil and water conservation, and minimizing the impact of climate change. This requires a detailed understanding of the flow and transport processes in soils, as well as the dynamic development of root growth. One of several established measurement methods for such applications in geophysics is georadar. Georadar operates in the frequency range from about 200 to 2000 MHz. The coupling into the ground is done with antennas and is therefore non-invasive. In this way, characteristic soil properties such as electrical and dielectric conductivity can be determined.

PhD position summary/title: PhD position – Nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems

In a current project we are aiming to model a forest ecosystem based on long-term and experimental data. In general, nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems includes nutrient inputs (litter production and decomposition, atmospheric deposition, weathering of primary minerals), nutrient uptake and storage in vegetation, changes of nutrient speciation, and nutrient export (leaching from soil, gaseous transfers, export by erosion). We will therefore develop a holistic model able to cope with the water and nutrient fluxes, storage and release of C, N, and P, and forest growth. The new model will be an extension of AgroC, developed in IBG-3, to simulate forest stands. Additionally, we aim at investigating the contribution of colloidal transport of elements in nutrient cycling as this is still scarcely explored and not covered by modeling. Understanding controls of colloid transport, especially after major events like heavy rain, is elementary to integrate particle transport into numerical modeling, which in turn is indispensable for describing and predicting elemental fluxes of critical nutrients in ecosystems.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position – Negative Emissions – Potentials of Direct Air Capture and Storage Technology to Realize Greenhouse Gas-Neutrality

Besides of a strict defossilization, negative emission pathways for taking care of hard to abate emissions need to be trod in order to reach the goal of greenhouse gas-neutrality. Sequestration of CO2 out of the air combined with underground storage can be an important puzzle piece within these pathways. The efficient operation of Direct Air Capture and Storage facilities is dependent on a variety of different site-specific factors. Due to the high electrical and thermal energy needs site-specific assessments of renewable potential is necessary. Local climate conditions can have an impact on the sequestration efficiency and need to be taken into consideration. Geological characteristics vary from site to site and need to be thoroughly assessed. Within your thesis you will combine all of theses factors to allow a model-based site-specific Direct Air Capture and Storage potenial assessment for different regions globally including economic aspects.

That is why you are working on the topic of sustainable production and use of green liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in southern Africa as part of an international project with South African partners. Green LPG is based on green hydrogen, which is produced locally with renewable energies. Make a significant contribution to this with a system analysis to determine the local technical potentials for decentralized application for sustainable cooking to support the energy transition in the global south. Among other things, you will analyze how supply infrastructures for green LPG could look locally and internationally and how sustainable green LPG is. Here, various questions will be explored, such as: Where can water for hydrogen production via seawater desalination be sustainably sourced? What is the greenhouse gas reduction potential compared to existing cooking applications and how much deforestation could be avoided? To answer these questions, you will further develop an existing energy system model and perform the following work:
