About this position
Sandia National Laboratories is seeking a postdoctoral appointee in electrochemistry and materials science to contribute to multidisciplinary battery research, development, and technology maturation in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The researcher will work on aqueous zinc-based batteries and lithium-ion battery chemistries. Activities may include assembling and testing zinc and lithium batteries, coordinating and analyzing materials-characterization data, publishing findings in peer-reviewed journals, and presenting research at technical conferences.
The position is part of Sandia’s Photovoltaics & Materials Tech Department within the Renewable Energy Technologies Group. The department develops materials and devices for sustainable and clean energy systems, including photovoltaics, hydrogen production, carbon management, and batteries for grid and device storage. Researchers collaborate across Sandia and with industry, universities, and other national laboratories on Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and laboratory-directed research programs.
The research environment combines electrochemical analysis, materials chemistry, battery evaluation, synthesis, processing, and advanced characterization. Relevant techniques include cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, galvanostatic intermittent titration, galvanostatic cycling, glove-box experimentation, X-ray methods, spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, Raman and infrared analysis, and electron microscopy, including in situ and in operando approaches.
The appointment is an onsite, full-time postdoctoral research role for candidates prepared to collaborate across technical disciplines while pursuing focused independent research.
