Postdoctoral Position on Photoswitchable Organic Nonlinear Optics
Offer DescriptionThe is one of eight institutes of the . HIMS performs internationally recognized research in molecular sciences, both curiosity as well as application driven. This is partly done in cooperation with the chemical, energy, flavour & food, medical and high-tech industries. Within the Synthesis and catalysis cluster, the Homogeneous Catalysis (HomKat) is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to work in a project funded by Dutch Research Council (NWO).Utilizing organic nonlinear optics (NLO) for data storage presents significant advantages over traditional inorganic-based counterparts, including eco-friendliness and sustainability. Despite these benefits, current organic NLO systems in data storage are limited due to their relatively low optical response. This project aims to overcome these limitations by exploring novel organic NLO systems with photoswitchable properties.What are you going to do
Our goal is to develop new organic nonlinear optics for sustainable data storage devices. It involves a combination of metal catalysis, molecular design and photochemical characterization. A close collaboration with Molecular Photonics group of HIMS is expected.What do we require

The Van ‘t Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS) is one of eight institutes of the University of Amsterdam (UvA) Faculty of Science. HIMS performs internationally recognized chemistry and molecular research, curiosity driven as well as application driven. This is done in close cooperation with the chemical, flavor & food, medical and high-tech industries. Research is organized into four themes: , , and .The Synthesis & Catalysis encompasses organic synthesis and all aspects of catalysis, including homogeneous catalysis, heterogeneous catalysis, biocatalysis, organocatalysis, and catalysis engineering. Projects range from fundamental to applied research, with strong valorization aspects. The main research objective is the development of novel catalytic processes driven by our knowledge of the relationship between structure and performance of the catalyst. Research projects span from fundamental to applied catalysis, the latter in collaboration with industry and via spin-off companies.
We will recruit until the position is filled and close the position when a suitable candidate is found.The UvA is an equal-opportunity employer.
