On 1 August 1945 he, along with 32 other German scientists, became French civil servants working in Saint-Louis. He continued to live in Germany though, residing in nearby

After the establishment of the ISL, Schardin sought contact with the nearby German
University in Freiburg im Breisgau. There he was appointed at the Albert-Ludwigs-University in 1947 as Honorary Professor of Technical Physics, and he founded the Department of Applied Physics. This department spun off

Schardin, now
Director of Science and Technology, continued his studies at the institute in Saint-Louis on high-speed physics and glass fracture. In the environment of military research, he also studied explosions and detonations. Beginning in 1954 he conducted research mainly in the field of civil

Together with the French
General and Engineer Robert Cassagnou, Schardin upheld the Institute until it was converted in 1959 - after two years of negotiation - to the German-French Research Institut Saint-Louis (ISL) . Long-time enemies France and Germany had now united for the common defense, an

After some initial restrictions imposed by the occupying powers after World War II, Schardin was soon able to pursue new research topics in the
Department of Applied Physics, and after 1955 at EMI. He was awarded by the German Glass Technical Society's "Georg-Gehlhoff-Ring" in 1958 for his

On 1 December 1937 he was appointed as an associate professor, and in 1942 as a full professor at

After World War II a competition began among the Allies to acquire the knowledge of German scientists and engineers. The
Technical College of the German Air Force, presided over by Schardin, was a particular goal of France and the USA.
