About this position
This postdoctoral project focuses on electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added products under realistic conditions, including those relevant to incinerator flue gases. The work is carried out within a collaboration between the Laboratoire Interfaces et Systèmes Electrochimiques (LISE) and the Laboratoire de Chimie des Processus Biologiques (LCPB) in Paris, with support from the Initiative iDream.
The successful researcher will study electrocatalyst interfaces during CO2 electrocatalytic conversion using local electrochemical methods, especially scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). The project combines interface analysis, localized measurements, and electrolysis experiments to better understand how local reaction environments influence catalyst behaviour.
- Localized electrochemical testing, particularly SECM, to probe local pH within the catalyst diffusion layer.
- Experimental work with different electrochemical cells for pulsed-potential CO2 electrolysis.
- Correlation of local pH results with CO2 electrolysis selectivity and electrocatalyst stability.
- Preparation of publications based on the experimental outcomes.
Most of the research will take place at LISE, a joint CNRS and Sorbonne Université laboratory in central Paris, in a strongly international environment. The postdoctoral researcher will also spend periods at LCPB, at the Collège de France, to benefit from its expertise.

The project is financially supported by the Initiative iDream.
What's required
The advert seeks highly motivated candidates for postdoctoral research in electrochemistry.
