About this position
This position is part of the Grand Programme de Recherche Post-Petroleum Materials (PPM) at the Université de Bordeaux, bringing together expertise from ISM in molecular chemistry and dye-sensitized solar cells with ICMCB in the synthesis and characterization of inorganic semiconductor films and photoelectrochemical cells.
The project focuses on dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells (DSPECs) as a route toward green hydrogen production by water reduction under solar illumination. The successful candidate will work on dye-sensitized photocathodes based on nanocrystalline delafossite films, with and without doping, and on their integration into solar cells and photoelectrochemical cells.
Research activities include the fabrication of nanocrystalline films on transparent conductive substrates, sensitization with dyes having complementary absorption spectra, and the characterization of the resulting hybrid organic-inorganic photocathodes. The project also includes the development and testing of p-type dye-sensitized solar cells and dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells, with a strong emphasis on device optimization.
The postdoctoral work will further investigate hydrogen generation from water photolysis, as well as the influence of delafossite conduction properties on device performance. A significant part of the project is dedicated to optimizing interfacial layers, electrolytes, reduction catalysts, and the electrolyte medium used in these devices.
The role is research-intensive and multidisciplinary, with opportunities to contribute to scientific dissemination within the research group and through publications.
