Research Scientist in Hydrogen Sensing Materials
5 days ago
The Langhammer group at the Chemical Physics Division is seeking a highly motivated researcher to contribute to sustainable and safe hydrogen technologies. This PhD position focuses on developing next-generation nanomaterials for hydrogen sensors.
About the Project:The transition to sustainable energy requires innovative solutions, and hydrogen plays a crucial role. However, the flammability of H2-air mixtures necessitates high-performance safety sensors, which current technologies fail to deliver.
Our Approach:- We will investigate high-entropy alloy (HEA) nanoparticles for their hydrogen sorption properties and induced changes in optical properties.
- Develop a new nanofabrication method for HEA nanoparticles on surfaces using our microshutter tool, to enable rapid screening of the hydrogen absorption in many alloy compositions simultaneously.
- Apply advanced multiplexed single-particle optical microscopy to study the HEA nanostructure - H2 interaction.
- Investigate how nanostructuring impacts hydride formation thermodynamics and kinetics in HEAs and enables superior H2 sorption properties.
- Contribute to sustainable and safe hydrogen technologies by demonstrating nanostructured HEAs as efficient solid-state H2 storage materials.
- High-performance materials for plasmonic H2 sensors.
The Langhammer group specializes in nanomaterials science, catalysis, nanoplasmonics, nanofluidics, and sensors, focusing on sustainable energy-related nanomaterials. We develop advanced optical microscopy techniques, state-of-the-art nanofabrication methodologies, and custom research instruments.
WISE Research School:This position is part of WISE, Sweden's largest materials science investment, funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. WISE promotes sustainability through cutting-edge materials research across Sweden's top universities.
TechForH2 Competence Center:This position will also be affiliated with TechForH2, a Competence Centre for multidisciplinary hydrogen research hosted by Chalmers and financially supported by the Swedish Energy Agency and member companies.
Responsibilities:- Plan and execute experiments in collaboration with the team.
- Develop advanced nanofabrication techniques for HEA nanoparticle arrays.
- Perform plasmonic nanospectroscopy and imaging to study hydrogen absorption at the single-particle level.
- Characterize samples using electron microscopy and related techniques.
- Analyze complex datasets, potentially using machine learning tools developed in the group.
- Present results within the team and at international conferences.
- Supervise Master's students and teach undergraduates (up to 20%).
- Master's degree in Physics, Applied Physics, Nanoscience, or Materials Science.
- Experimental Master's thesis in a relevant area.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills in English.
- Background in plasmonics, plasmonic sensing, or micro-/nanofabrication.
- Experience or coursework in machine learning.
- Hands-on experience with micro-/nanofabrication, nanoplasmonics, metal hydrides, and advanced optical microscopy.
- Programming skills in Python, MATLAB, and simulation tools such as Comsol and Lumerical.
- Data analysis, especially using machine learning.
Please submit your application in English as PDF files. Attach CV, Personal letter, Two references, Bachelor's and master's thesis together with transcripts, and documents confirming your English proficiency.
