Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) Full time

Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation, and scientific advice.

We are seeking a skilled and motivated researcher to contribute to the renewable energy revolution by developing efficient nanoparticles for hydrogen production through photocatalytic water splitting.

The project involves setting up a high-throughput synthesis protocol based on an existing continuous flow hydrothermal reactor, defining standard characterization operations, and developing a machine learning algorithm to optimize the synthesis process.

As a member of our research team, you will work with excellent facilities for synthesis, characterization, and modelling at DTU Energy, as well as during your stay in Singapore.

Responsibilities:

  • Nanoparticle synthesis using a continuous flow hydrothermal process
  • Characterization with advanced techniques such as X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and infra-red spectroscopy
  • Development of a qualitative test bench for parallel testing of water splitting
  • Developing a machine learning algorithm to optimize the synthesis process for efficient hydrogen production

You must have a strong background in chemistry, physics, or material science engineering, as well as practical experience in nanoparticle synthesis, characterization, and machine learning.
