PhD Studentship in Nanoengineered Capsules for Heat Storage and Delivery Supervisors: Prof. Dmitry Shchukin and Dr. Gilberto Teobaldi Applications are invited for a graduate to join the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy, Department of Chemistry, University of Liverpool, UK for a funded 42 month period of research leading to the award of PhD. PhD project contributes to the development of a novel generation of heat storage materials by applying nanoencapsulation approach for control…

This project aims to fabricate nanostructured anodes for the development of solar assisted electrolyzers for hydrogen production. Templated electrodeposition will be used to prepare metallic films with a defined structure at the nanometre scale. This nanostructure will provide a high electroactive area, maximize photon capture, increase utilization of solar energy and overall enhance the rate of water oxidation. With a more efficient photoanode the electrolyser will consume less electrical…

An industry sponsored 3/3.5 y PhD project in polymer catalysis and characterization is available from October 2013 or sooner if convenient. The project will involve organometallic Ziegler-type chemistry and other polymerization, then applications in nanostructure formation and specific industrial applications with the sponsor. Funding will be at EPSRC standard rates.

Post-doc position for 2.5 years at the University of Iceland



The research project involves simulations and experimental studies of the mechanism and rate of dissociation of excited molecules, in particular after electron attachment. This work relates to studies of radiation damage as well as the possibility of using electron induced processes in controlled chemical reactions on surfaces. The calculations will make use of self-interaction corrected density functional theory as well…

Positions are available for graduate students, postdocs, research scientists, engineers, and faculty members at the Peac Institute of Multiscale sciences (PIMS).

The subject areas span over materials science, mechanics, condensed matter and plasma physics, chemistry, optics including THz, X-ray sciences,…

For many applications within the microelectronics industry, the challenge is no longer the size reduction but the flexibly of materials and low production costs. In this context, a laser printing technique called LIFT (Laser-Induced Forward Transfer) has been developed in the frame of a preceding project. It allowed the printing of organic thin film transistors (OTFT) on various substrates. However, the performances of such OTFTs remained one to two orders of magnitude lower than their…
