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

About the Company

Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) is a leading technical university recognized globally for its research, education, innovation, and scientific advice. Our mission is to develop technology for people and to create a better world by solving global challenges.

Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at DTU Energy, focused on education, research, and development within functional materials and their application in sustainable energy technologies. The successful candidate will work on the development of new solid-state batteries, specifically composite electrolytes and electrodes, under the supervision of Professor Poul Norby.

Responsibilities

  • Design and synthesis of inorganic materials using solid-state synthesis methods and structural analysis using Rietveld refinement of powder diffraction data.
  • Carry out electrochemical characterization of materials, e.g., Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy analysis of ionic conductivity and charge/discharge of full solid-state battery cells.
  • Perform structural, thermal, and morphological characterization of synthesized materials using powder diffraction, thermal analysis (TG, DSC), electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), etc.
  • Carry out in situ and operando studies using synchrotron X-ray diffraction and imaging.
  • Dissemination of research results through publications and presentations.

Required Skills and Qualifications

The ideal candidate should have a two-year master's degree in chemistry, physics, material science, or a related field with a strong background in inorganic materials synthesis and structural analysis from X-ray diffraction data using Rietveld refinement. Experience in the assembly and electrochemical characterization of rechargeable battery cells and experience in all-solid-state batteries will be beneficial.

Benefits

The position offers an excellent opportunity to become part of a dynamic research group focused on developing new battery technologies. You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, as well as opportunities for collaboration and knowledge-sharing with other researchers.

Salary

The salary for the position will be commensurate with qualifications and experience, but is expected to be around 43,000-52,000 DKK per month before taxes, based on a 37-hour workweek.
