APPLIED PHYSICIST – OPTICS (Junior Researcher 2x)

The ELI (Extreme Light Infrastructure) Project is an integral part of the European plan to build the next generation of large research facilities. ELI-Beamlines as a cutting edge laser facility is currently being constructed in Prague, Czech Republic; its commissioning is scheduled for end of 2015. ELI will be delivering ultrashort, ultraintense laser pulses lasting typically a few femtoseconds (10-15 fs) with peak power projected to reach of up to 200 PW. It will make available time synchronized laser beams over wide range intensities for wide range of interdisciplinary applications in physics, medicine, biology, material science etc. The high laser electric field intensities of the laser pulse will be also used for generating secondary sources of e- and p+. Laser beams will be transported in vacuum over large distances to the experimental chambers. For construction of the optical transport systems we invite applications for new group members
