About this position

This PhD opening is part of a predoctoral research contract at the Autonomous University of Madrid, within the Faculty of Science and the Department of Condensed Matter Physics. The project is titled “Super-resolution visualization of ion dynamics in disordered solid-state electrolytes” and focuses on understanding how ions move inside disordered solid-state electrolyte materials.

The successful candidate will join a research environment centered on condensed matter physics, nanoscience and biophysics, working on microscopy-based approaches to study ion transport in advanced electrolyte systems. The project combines experimental development and analysis, with work spanning sample preparation, optical microscopy, super-resolution imaging, and structural and chemical characterisation using advanced microscopy techniques.

The position is supervised by Dr. Ferry Prins and Dr. Celia Polop Jordá, and is linked to the UAM PhD Programme in Condensed Matter Physics, Nanoscience and Biophysics. The advertised tasks indicate a strong experimental component, with emphasis on microscopy method development and data acquisition for challenging disordered solid-state materials.

The role is full-time and based in Madrid at UAM’s Faculty of Science. It is a research training opportunity leading to doctoral work in an interdisciplinary setting that brings together condensed matter physics, microscopy, and materials-focused characterization.
