Postdoc in Large-area Graphene Functionalization – DTU Physics
Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark
Job Description

We are seeking a talented and self-motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team focused on developing functionalized graphene and its applications. This position offers a unique opportunity to work on projects related to industrial applications of functionalized graphene, moving academic research towards commercial impact.
Key Responsibilities: 

• Graphene synthesis, transfer and functionalization: use your extensive knowledge in graphene to synthesize graphene using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), transfer it to various novel substrates, and develop scalable chemical and physical functionalization methods for the graphene.
• Graphene characterization: investigate and evaluate graphene functionalization and quality using your knowledge in graphene characterization techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, SEM, FTIR, XPS, AFM, optical microscopy, THz-TDS, and surface free energy measurements.
• Data Analysis: Analyze experimental data to draw meaningful conclusions and contribute to the development of effective and scalable graphene functionalization methods.
• Collaboration: Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of researchers to integrate findings into broader research goals and contribute to project advancements.
• Literature Review: Stay abreast of the latest developments in graphene functionalization methods, incorporating relevant findings into research projects.
• Documentation and Reporting: Prepare detailed reports, and presentations summarizing research findings for internal dissemination.
• Actively contribute to our pilot-scale demonstration project to ensure the successful implementation of our lab-scale optimized process at scale.

Requirements: 

• Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, or a related field, showcasing demonstrated expertise in graphene, and in particular graphene functionalization and/or CVD graphene.
• Experience in the synthesis and transfer of CVD graphene, with a strong preference for candidates with experience in large-scale/roll-to-roll methods.
• Demonstrated experience and capacity for innovation in developing scalable graphene functionalization techniques – chemically and/or physically – and/or graphene synthesis/transfer. 
• Extensive hands-on experience with graphene characterization methods, including Raman, SEM, Optical Microscopy, XPS, FTIR, THz-TDS, and AFM.
• Proficiency in data analysis, a meticulous and systematic approach to work, and a collaborative team player.

We offer 

• Potential for joining fast-paced spin off as an early team member.
• Access to state-of-the-art facilities, resources, and technological infrastructure.
• Collaborative and interdisciplinary work setting, fostering meaningful partnerships with international experts.
• Continuous learning and professional development opportunities to expand your knowledge and expertise.
• Key role in driving the development and implementation of advanced technologies.
• Active contribution towards building a sustainable future and addressing global challenges.
• Inclusive and diverse organizational culture, promoting equal opportunities and embracing individual differences.
• Flexible working hours and a supportive work-life balance.
• Substantial influence in shaping strategic decisions and project direction.
