DTU PhD Scholarship

This PhD project at the Department of Chemistry, Technical University of Denmark (DTU) explores how batteries work and fail at the molecular level, with the goal of informing better materials for safer, longer-lasting, higher-performing energy storage. The research combines magnetic resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with electrochemical methods to investigate battery materials and components in a non-destructive, chemically specific way. You will help develop and apply a suite of NM...
