Deadline: 23 Dec. 2012
Job description
The PhD project will deal with photoinduced processes in and at nanostructures. The research of light-matter interaction will be directed towards processes of relevance for environmental energy technology, for example solar light driven photocatalysis. The primary aim will be to contribute to the goals of the Nordic Initiative for Solar Fuel Development (N-I-S-F-D: ) <nisfd.com>.
Specific task will be to work with design, engineering, and fabrication of composite and sensitized semiconductor materials with optimal photon capture. This will include design and fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures for promotion of photocatalytic reactions. Experimental in approach, the topic offers possibility for theoretical and computer simulation (modeling) work. The work will be performed in collaboration with other groups at Chalmers and other groups from different Nordic countries.
The employment is limited to a maximum of five years.
Qualifications
The PhD position requires a master degree in physics, chemistry, or materials science. Experience (background) from work with lasers and optical spectroscopy, ultra high vacuum based analytical methods, and clean room facilities are desirable and advantageous for the successful candidate. All applicants should have at the starting time of position excellent analytical and interpersonal skills, ability to work collaboratively in a team environment; Demonstrated ability to communicate in English is essential. The duration of the PhD project is four years. The project output in this respect should be with quality and volume satisfying the requirements for doctoral degree at Chalmers University.
In order to improve the gender balance at the Department, we welcome in particular applications from female candidates.
Application procedure
The application should be marked with Ref 20120353 and written in English. The application should be sent electronically and be attached as pdf-files, as below:
