Postdoc in organic energy materials

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join us in developing the sustainable energy solutions of the future. Through innovative research in flow batteries and hydrogen electrolyzers, we create efficient and scalable technologies for a greener future.

In the research unit of Organic Energy Materials (OEM) we design organic materials with a specific function for energy transport, conversion or storage. One key advantage of organic materials is that they are composed of atomic elements of high natural abundancy; which is highly relevant for mass implementation of energy technology. Energy devices can be separated into conversion and storage devices. Both types can be designed to operate as solid state or electrochemical devices.

PhD in material science – Theory and principles of organic luminescent radicals

We are seeking a PhD student for an exciting research project on organic luminescent radicals (OLRs) for advanced applications in OLED technology, sensors, and security marking. Join a dynamic research environment and help develop the technology of the future!

Current project aims, among others, to develop a general theory of radical emission based on modern quantum-chemical approaches (including calculations of radiative doublet-doublet fluorescence and doublet-quartet phosphorescence and of non-radiative doublet-doublet internal conversion and inter-system crossing pathways of dissipation of the excitation energy). The PhD studies will thus include computational modelling of structure and optical properties of organic luminescent radicals by using quantum-chemical methods like density functional theory (DFT), time-dependent DFT, ab-initio approximations (like CASPT2) etc. The studies will be performed in a highly collaborative research environment with involvement of experts in organic synthesis and OLED fabrication from host group.
