About this position

PhD opportunity in Physics at the University of Bologna (UNIBO), Italy, for a fully funded 3-year project on understanding defect states and interfaces in 2D and 3D metal halide perovskites.

The research focuses on charge photogeneration and transport, trap states, defect states, and the role of defects in applications such as photovoltaic solar cells, photodetectors, and radiation detectors. The project is highly interdisciplinary and experimental, sitting at the interface of solid-state physics, semiconductor physics, and chemistry.

Applicants with backgrounds in Physics (especially condensed matter), Chemistry, or Materials Science are encouraged to apply. The PhD programme includes a 6-month research period abroad. The University of Bologna PhD in Physics page lists the scholarship amount as €1,350 net per month (subject to variation depending on pension fund membership or other employment income).

Deadline: 15 June 2026.

How to apply: Read the call details and application instructions via the linked UNIBO page. Use the programme attachments if required (CV form and thesis description template), and submit before the deadline. For questions, contact the announcer, Daniela Cavalcoli, Associate Professor at the Physics and Astronomy Department, University of Bologna.

Funding details

Fully funded 3-year PhD scholarship (PhD Scholarship n. 8). The University of Bologna PhD in Physics lists a scholarship amount of €1,350 net per month; amount may vary depending on pension fund membership or other employment income. The programme duration is 3 years and includes mobility abroad.

What's required

Applicants should be motivated PhD candidates with backgrounds in Physics, especially condensed matter physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science. The project is highly interdisciplinary and experimental, so relevant preparation in solid-state physics and semiconductor physics is preferred. The PhD programme includes a 6-month research period abroad.
