Internship "Characterization of Highly Efficient Photonic Power Converters"

Job description

As one of the world's largest solar research institutes, the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE makes a significant contribution to a sustainable, economical, secure, and socially equitable energy supply worldwide. Our goal is to advance the energy transition with concrete, implementable technological solutions – through excellent research results, successful industrial collaborations, and spin-offs. To this end, our approximately 1,300 employees conduct research in four key areas: energy supply, energy distribution, energy storage, and energy use. Fraunhofer ISE's state-of-the-art R&D infrastructure, with 22,300 m² of laboratory space, enables cutting-edge research at an international level. Be part of change: Would you like to actively shape the energy transition and gain practical experience even during your studies? With us, you’ll find the experts and the environment to turn these goals into reality. You will support our group "III-V Cell and Module Characterization" in the characterization of so-called Photonic Power Converters (PPC). These special photovoltaic cells are used for laser-based optical energy transfer over fiber or in free space. At the same time,...
