Applications are invited for a graduate to join the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy and the Department of Physics at the University of Liverpool, UK for a funded 42 month period of research leading to the award of PhD. Solar fuels such as hydrogen, methane ort methanol can be produced photo-catalytically from water or carbon dioxide using sunlight. This represents an attractive approach for storing solar energy in the form of chemical energy for later use. Therefore, solar fuels are currently considered as one component of a future green energy mix. Recently, catalyst decorated semiconductor nanocrystals started attracting tremendous interest in photocatalysis due to their tuneable optical and electronic properties and large surface-to-volume...
