The post states that the PhD positio...

The Department of Chemistry at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) is offering a three-year PhD project focused on battery chemistry and magnetic resonance. The research aims to understand how batteries operate and fail at the molecular level, supporting the design of safer, longer-lasting and higher-performing energy-storage materials. Working under the supervision of Assistant Professor Leo W. Gordon, the PhD researcher will develop and apply nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characteriza...

KU Leuven and a European consortium are recruiting 15 PhD researchers for the Marie-Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network ZEST – European Doctoral Network on Zinc Energy Storage Technology , funded under Horizon Europe . The positions are part of a collaborative network spanning leading universities, research institutes, and industry partners across Europe, including KU Leuven, Universität Bremen, University College London, Sapienza Università di Roma, Politecnico di Milano, RISE Research Institutes...

PhD opportunity in organic semiconductors , OLED displays , and quantum technologies at the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom . This project sits in the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and is supervised by Dr Paloma Lays dos Santos and Prof Jenny Clark . The research explores the fundamental physics of excited states in organic semiconductor thin films and OLED devices, including how states are created, evolve, interact, and are influenced by electron spin. The work c...

These four PhD positions are hosted by DTU Energy within BRIGHT ’s mission-oriented research programme on novel biomanufacturing-enabled materials. The project aims to create PFAS-free functional biomaterials and, in particular, to develop proteinaceous and polypeptide-based materials as sustainable alternatives to persistent fluorinated components used in batteries. The research spans an integrated pipeline from molecular design to biomanufacturing, materials processing and performance testing....
