Postdoc CNT-based Battery Electrodes

Postdoc CNT-based Battery Electrodes

IMDEA Materials Institute

Madrid, Spain

Description

This position is for a postdoctoral research associate with demonstrated experiences in CNT-containing electrodes for Li-ion batteries. A first task will be to implement a reproducible and controllable process for the preparation of cathodes and anodes containing CNTs. Next, the researcher will carry out structural characterisation of the electrodes, both ex- and in-situ, using methods such as FIB-milled SEM, XRD, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray tomography. The objective is to build a network model that can describe the electrochemical properties of said electrodes.

Close interaction with other group members, collabroators and possible industrial partners is expected.

Requirements

• PhD in Materials Science, Electrochemistry or a related discipline;
• Fluent English.
