Welcome to the website of the PCF Emeritus Group
Please note that the Division has become a small emeritus group at the end of March 2021, following the statutory retirement of Philip Russell. As a result the group is no longer recruiting PhD students, but can still offer Masters projects. Enquiries about postdoctoral positions are also welcome, although the opportunities are limited. In either case, please send an email, with your curriculum vitae and a statement of your research interests, to Bettina Schwender at Bettina.Schwender@mpl.mpg.de.
The Division of Photonic Crystal Fibre Science is part of the Max-Planck Institute for the Science of Light, founded in January 2009. It was formerly part of a Max Planck Research Group at the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. The Division has over 40 members (laboratory assistants, masters and doctorate students, post-doctoral researchers and visitors) from all over the world. There is a strongly international atmosphere, and as a result the working language is English (though many of us speak German).
