There are open positions available to be filled as soon as possible for a student assistant at SAWLab Saxony as part of the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research - IFW.

At SAWLab Saxony, we developed a novel acoustic aerosol source that can be used for micro-droplet generation in various application areas. The aerosol generation is based on the interaction of high-frequency SAW with fluids. This study is dedicated to investigate aerosol focusing and deposition stability for aerosol-based printing
