Job description

Offer DescriptionJob positionPhD PositionProject Title: Synthesis, characterization, and guiding of ferro- and ferrimagnetic mesoporous nanowiresObjectives: Synthesis of single-layered mesoporous ferromagnetic nanowires by electrodeposition (e.g., Fe-Mn). Attempts to produce multilayered nanowires with mesoporous layers will be made. Characterization of the magnetic properties of nanowires and their degradation in relevant environments.Expected results: Successful synthesis of nanowires with homogeneous mesoporosity, capable to contain drugs. Suitable magnetic properties for their magnetic guiding. Biodegradability proven in relevant environments (e.g., bodily fluids).The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), located in Bellaterra, is one of the major public universities in Spain.
