About this position

NOVA.id.FCT is recruiting a PhD Researcher for the EU-funded LEAF project, “SeLf-powered self-rEshaping Autarkic skin For wireless motes.” The research will be conducted at the CENIMAT|i3N laboratories at the Faculty of Sciences and Technology of NOVA University Lisbon on the Caparica campus in Portugal.

The project focuses on sustainable printed electronics and self-powered wireless mote technologies. The researcher will develop sustainable inks based on metal oxide nanostructures and optimize the associated deposition and printing processes. The work combines materials science, chemistry, physics and nanotechnology with device fabrication.

Research activities will include fabricating antennas and sensors for humidity detection and visible-light response using flexographic and screen-printing techniques. The resulting devices will be characterized through electrical, optical and materials-analysis methods, contributing to the development of sustainable, functional printed components for the LEAF system.

The position offers an interdisciplinary research environment within CENIMAT|i3N, involving printed materials, thin-film processing, biodegradable substrates and sensor technologies. The researcher will work with the project team, contribute to scientific support and outreach activities, and may travel in Portugal or abroad when required by the research work.
