Odense, Odense Kommune, Denmark Hs Mittweida Full time

About the Position

We are seeking a highly skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team in the development of novel photoactive transition metal complexes based on first-row transition metals. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will work closely with our team to design and synthesize novel photosensitizer complexes, characterize their electronic structures using steady-state spectroscopy techniques, and investigate their photophysical and photochemical properties.

Project Background

Photochemistry is an area of growing importance in modern chemistry, with applications in sustainable energy solutions. The development of novel photoactive complexes based on Earth-abundant metals is crucial for cheaper technologies and the green transition. This project aims to use rational ligand design strategies to overcome the fundamental challenge of promoting photoactive states in first-row transition metal complexes.

Responsibilities

  1. Design and synthesis of novel photosensitizer complexes based on first-row transition metals.
  2. Characterization of electronic structures of novel photosensitizer complexes using steady-state spectroscopy techniques.
  3. Photophysical and photochemical characterization of novel photosensitizer complexes using time-dependent spectroscopy techniques.
  4. Development of photocatalytic studies, focusing on energy and electron transfer processes.

Requirements

We are looking for a candidate with a strong background in synthetic chemistry and physical chemistry. Prior experience in synthetic organometallic/coordination chemistry is essential. Familiarity with time-resolved spectroscopic techniques and characterization of paramagnetic systems is desirable. The successful candidate will hold a PhD in chemistry or a closely related area.

What We Offer

We offer a dynamic and supportive research environment, with opportunities for professional growth and development. The postdoctoral researcher will be part of the Section for Chemistry and Pharmacy at the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy.

How to Apply

To apply, please submit your application, including a curriculum vitae, a full list of publications, and a copy of your PhD diploma. Applications will be assessed by an expert committee, and the successful candidate will be notified by the university.
