Postdoctoral Position Optimizing Porous Thin Films for Enhanced Charge Transfer
Offer DescriptionWe are looking for a candidate to fill an open postdoctoral position in a joint project between the groups of Dr. Sonja Pullen and Dr. Bettina Baumgartner (both ) and Dr. Emilia Olsson ( ), funded by the molecular materials design program ( ) of the Faculty of Science.The position is fully-funded for 18 months with planned start date 1st of October 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.What are you going to do
The successful candidate will develop a theoretical framework to simulate and predict how hierarchical orientation of different building blocks, structural defects, and grain boundaries in metal-organic framework (MOF) based porous thin films influence charge carrier properties across the film. This model will then be implemented in the experimental automated synthesis and characterization of novel porous materials for solar energy conversion. You will have the unique opportunity to work at the interface of chemistry and physics, as the position will be located both at HIMS and IoP.You will:
What do we require
A recent PhD degree in the simulation, characterization and/or synthesis of solar energy conversion materials. Ideally a combined experimental and theoretical expertise. Experience with (photo-) electrochemical characterization of MOFs or related porous materials will be an advantage.Your experience and profile:
