Optical distributed sensing

University of Kiel

3 to 6 months

35h / week

English B1

The student will work closely with PhD students involved in funded projects related to optical sensing. The work will be conducted in the new ZEVS building (Center for networked sensor systems) at the Technical Faculty of Kiel University. Optical sensing is currently investigated in various fields related to future smart city applications as well as sophisticated measurements applied to future electrical battery storage systems to be used in regenerative electrical power networks.
