PhD in Materials Science for Li-ion Battery Negative Electrodes at CNRS/University of Montpellier Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier in France

We’re hiring a Postdoc at MOLTECH-Anjou (CNRS / University of Angers) for research on the chirality of helical radicals . The project focuses on chiral TTF-based helicenes , the CISS effect , and spin-dependent electrochemistry . This is a strong fit for candidates with a background in chemistry , especially those interested in molecular chirality, radical chemistry, electrochemistry, and spin-related phenomena in functional materials. Eligibility: applicants should hold a PhD in chemistry and h...

CNRS is advertising a PhD position at the Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier in France on materials science, electrochemistry, solid-state chemistry, and Li-ion batteries . The thesis topic is “New strategies based on insertion oxides for high-power Li-ion battery negative electrodes.” The project addresses fast-charging and safety limitations of graphite anodes by studying niobium-based Wadsley–Roth structured oxides and related insertion oxides. Research directions include composite electro...

Uppsala University is recruiting a PhD student in bio-based battery electrolytes at the Department of Chemistry – Ångström Laboratory in Sweden. The project sits within the Ångström Advanced Battery Centre and focuses on developing sustainable electrolyte materials for lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries . The research aims to reduce climate impact, improve safety, and lower dependence on fossil and externally sourced raw materials by implementing bio-based electrolytes from renewable carbon fe...
