Deadline: 4 Jan. 2013
Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich -Department of Physics
Applications are invited for a PhD candidate to work on photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction using semiconductor nanocrystals at Photonics and Optoelectronics Group, Dept. of Physics, LMU Munich (seehttp://www.phog.physik.uni-muenchen.de). The project aims at the development of new, efficient materials for solar light harvesting and fuel (methane, methanol) generation, as well as at studying the physics of this photocatalytic process. The research project is done within the framework of the Solar Technologies Go Hybrid programme funded by the Free State of Bavaria. See http://www.soltech-go-hybrid.de/ for further details.
The applicants should hold (or are about to obtain) a Masters degree in physics, physical chemistry or a related subject, with a keen interest in nanoscience and nanotechnology. First-hand experience with nanoparticle chemistry/physics, heterogeneous photocatalysis and/or optical spectroscopic methods will be an advantage. We seek enthusiastic and independently-minded individuals with excellent oral and written communication skills who can work in a multi-disciplinary team. Fluency in English is essential.
Applications should be submitted by email to Dr. Jacek Stolarczyk via the Apply button below (jacek.stolarczyk@physik.unimuenchen.de) quoting the reference (JS/2012-PCS-2/AC) in the subject line. The application should include the CV of the candidate, a cover letter describing the motivation to work on the project and a certificate of the degree, all three as attachments.
The post is available immediately. Quote reference: JS/2012-PCS-2/AC
