In cooperation with the Chair of Laser Technology (LLT), the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology (ILT)—Europe’s leading center for contract research and development in the field of laser technology—is offering the opportunity to write a thesis on the topic: »Flexible, Scalable Laser Processes with Planar Light Valves for Battery Production«.

The transition towards a climate-neutral economy demands disruptive manufacturing technologies. Ultrashort pulsed lasers (USP) are a key enabler for critical green technologies — from next-generation battery electrodes to scalable green hydrogen production. Yet, one fundamental bottleneck remains: the lack of scalability of USP processes prevents their widespread industrial adoption. This thesis addresses th...
