About this position
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 NMR characterisation tools to study structure, dynamics, and degradation across representative battery systems.
The project is described as primarily experimental and is embedded in DTU Chemistry’s research environment, which includes NMR spectrometers and electrochemical testing equipment. It sits within the department’s broader activity in energy, catalysis, and materials, and aims to generate design principles for next-generation batteries.
The work is supervised by Assistant Professor Leo W. Gordon and is positioned within DTU’s international research environment in Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark.
