Offer Description

We seek a PhD research fellow with qualifications and interest in materials science and electrochemistry related to catalyst materials for water electrolysis systems. The work is part of REFINE , a Horizon Europe-funded project with the main aim to produce electrofuels. REFINE is coordinated by University of Oslo (UiO) and is comprised of a total of nine partners.

The PhD Research Fellow will be mainly involved in the synthesis and development of novel catalysts for use as anodes in water electrolyzers. The catalysts will be characterized by a variety of ex situ and in situ/operando physicochemical techniques, and also modelled by computational methods, such as density functional theory (DFT), depending on the qualifications and interest of the PhD candidate. It is imperative that the applicant in the cover letter clearly addresses, point-by-point, all the required qualifications.

SMN is an interdisciplinary centre, promoting research in materials science and nanotechnology. The Centre is an international leader in basic science within functional materials and nanoscience, with applications within energy, life science, environment and ICT.
