Job Details

The candidate will be a key player in a scientific project focused on solar energy production, funded by an ERC Starting Grant (structural energy harvesting composite composites). In short, the focus will be nanocarbon-based Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs), which have emerged as one of the most promising photovoltaics technologies with a global market value of USD 49.6 million, estimated to grow over 12% up to 2022. In this context, the strategy that the candidate will develop is the preparation and analysis of flexible DSSCs using carbon nanotube (CNTs) electrodes. The candidate will learn the fabrication and characterization of CNT electrodes as well as the device assembly using n- and p-type metal oxide electrodes. He/She will then characterize solar cells under in and out-door conditions combining different spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques like EIS, IMVS, IMPS, IPCE, etc.

Full time contract including social security coverage.
Salary depending on previous experience and credentials.

The position will be open until the candidate is selected.
Interested candidates should submit their Curriculum Vitae (including complete contact information for two references) and a one-page statement of their motivation.

Fluent oral and written English is required as this is the official language of the group. No knowledge of Spanish is fine (free lessons provided).
