Master’s Opportunities in Catalysis in Germany

The DLR-Institut für Future Fuels is hiring a PhD student to work on the control of high-temperature solar-chemical processes. The research lies at the intersection of renewable energy, process modelling, process control, solar fuels, and solar-thermal chemistry . The project will develop and test control strategies for high-temperature solar-chemical processes, with validation on real prototypes. Potential approaches include model predictive control and reinforcement learning . The position is ...

Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg is offering a three-year PhD student position in the Erlangen Center for Interface Research and Catalysis, within the group of Prof. Joerg Libuda. The project, based in Erlangen, Germany, investigates new concepts and materials for highly selective catalytic (de)functionalization reactions. The research will use in situ and operando approaches to study real and model catalysts, with particular emphasis on infrared spectroscopy techniques includin...

Postdoctoral Researcher opportunity in high-efficiency all-perovskite tandem solar cells at the Aydin Group, Department of Chemistry, LMU Munich in Germany. The project focuses on the design, fabrication, optimization, and characterization of monolithic all-perovskite tandem devices. Research activities include working with wide-bandgap and narrow-bandgap subcells , recombination contacts and interfaces , stability testing , and spectroscopic analysis to study and mitigate degradation pathways. ...
