100%, Zurich, fixed-term
The Electrochemical Energy Systems Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering at ETH Zurich is inviting applications for a PhD position in electrochemical energy storage and conversion, broadly defined.
Project background
Our group studies fundamental processes in solutions, materials and at the electrode-electrolyte interfaces using a combination of the different in-situ and ex-situ characterization techniques coupled with detailed electrochemical studies. We then apply this fundamental knowledge to the design of new battery materials, electrocatalysts and electrolytes that can deliver improved performance (i.e. charging times, energy, capacity, cycling stability), cost, efficiency and safety.
Job description
This full-time position offers students an excellent opportunity to delve into energy science and gain deep fundamental knowledge of electrochemical processes and materials chemistry. You will join inclusive, non-discriminating and supportive working environment that praises scientific curiosity and creativity. Tentative starting date is January or February 2022 or later. Applications are accepted until the positions are filled.
Your profile
You should have a recent Master’s degree (or being close to its completion) in Chemistry, Material Science or closely related disciplines from the internationally recognized university. We are looking for candidates who are self-driven and highly motivated, creative and excited to work in interdisciplinary teams. Although we welcome candidates with diverse background, having prior experience in:
- synthetic organic chemistry and/or polymers
- catalysis and/or electrochemistry
- synchrotron facilities and/or other in-situ characterization techniques is a plus
