PhD Student Position in Materials Physics
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student with a strong background in physics to investigate fundamental key properties of novel energy-related materials using advanced neutron scattering techniques at international large-scale neutron sources.
Project Description
Lighting accounts for 16.5% of the world's electricity consumption. Novel and energy-efficient lighting solutions are urgently needed to reduce the environmental impact. This PhD project focuses on the investigation of a novel class of phosphors, called hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites, which are free from rare-earth ions. The project aims to unravel relationships between local structure, dynamics, and optical properties in these materials.
Research Group and Department
The project will be conducted within the research group of Prof. Maths Karlsson at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. The group focuses on characterizing structure and dynamics in functional materials, with a view towards their implementation in energy-relevant technologies. The primary tools involve techniques at large-scale neutron and photon sources, vibrational spectroscopy, optical techniques, and computer modeling.
Major Responsibilities
Your primary responsibility will be to carry out the PhD project, as described above. You are expected to develop your own scientific concepts and communicate the results of your research in a wide context, through meetings, seminars, national and international conferences, and in the form of informal reports and peer-reviewed publications. As a PhD student, you will also take courses corresponding to 60 ECTS and be involved in teaching on the undergraduate level corresponding to about 10% of your time.
