PhD in Softness of Biodegradable Polysaccharide Nanogels at RWTH Aachen University RWTH Aachen University in United Kingdom

Lancaster University’s Chemistry Department is advertising a fully funded PhD studentship supervised by Prof John Griffin and Dr Xiao Hua . The project is part of the Faraday Institution PhD Training Programme and focuses on local structure and ion ordering in high-performance materials for lithium-ion batteries . The research centres on disordered rocksalts (DRXs) as next-generation cathode materials. DRXs have crystalline structures but lack long-range ordering of lithium and transition metal ...

The School of Chemistry at the University of St Andrews, in collaboration with industrial partner Johnson Matthey, is advertising 4 fully funded international PhD studentships in a platinum group metals (PGM) cluster. The cluster is focused on materials chemistry and aims to deliver cutting-edge advances in PGM-based materials and compounds, supported by state-of-the-art structural, physical, and microstructural characterisation facilities and links to central facilities. Research projects avail...

Prof. Dr. Stefan Schramm at the University of Applied Sciences (HTW) Dresden is advertising an open position in his group for work on persistent luminescent materials and long-afterglow chemistry . The project aims to move beyond the usual green glow and develop bright, colorful materials with tunable emission that remain bright for a long time and can survive in practical applications such as coatings, paints, and polymers . The role combines synthesis and spectroscopy . The successful candidat...
