About this position

This doctoral project focuses on flexible X-ray detectors, a future technology with potential applications across scientific, medical and technological areas. The research aims to enable flexible detectors by developing new organic semiconductors that can meet demanding requirements for flexibility, X-ray absorption and charge transport.

You will work on the development of X-ray detectors using new materials and advanced characterisation methods. The project is highly collaborative and brings together researchers in chemistry, materials science and component/device physics. At Linköping University, the work is connected to the group led by Professor Feng Gao, which focuses on solution-processed optoelectronic devices, particularly semiconducting perovskites and organic semiconductors.

The project is part of a broader research collaboration that also involves groups at Chalmers University of Technology and Uppsala University, supporting regular interaction with several participating research teams. The environment is centered on developing photonic and electronic materials for energy conversion and storage within the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology structure referenced in the advert.

As a doctoral student, you will be enrolled in doctoral education while carrying out the research project. The role is research-focused and may also include limited teaching or other departmental duties.

Funding details

Project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation; doctoral employment with locally regulated doctoral salary. Standard full-time duration is four years, with possible extension up to five years for teaching and departmental duties.

What's required

Applicants must have a second-cycle degree in physics, chemistry, materials science, engineering, or a related subject, or have completed at least 240 higher education credits including at least 60 credits at advanced level in one of these fields, or otherwise acquired substantially equivalent knowledge. Qualified candidates are expected to work independently, collaborate openly as part of a team, provide information and advice on scientific protocols and experimental techniques, take initiative in research-related tasks, acquire new knowledge, and have prior experimental experience relevant to the described work, especially in physics and/or materials/device development.

How to apply

Apply via the "Ansök" button in the advertisement. Submit your application to Linköping University by 30 November 2026. Include a statement of intent explaining why you want to pursue a PhD, why you are interested in this position, and why you are qualified.
