Technical University of Denmark - Department of Energy Conversion and Storage
Location:Lyngby - Denmark
Salary:Not Specified
Hours:Full Time
Contract Type:Fixed-Term/Contract
Placed On:18th June 2020
Closes:31st July 2020
Department of Energy Conversion and Storage at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU Energy) invites applications for a 2-year experimental postdoc position to work on the development of next-generation metal-air batteries.
The project aims to develop a new metal-air battery consisting of metal alloy anode and various types of liquid electrolytes e.g. polymeric ionic liquid and eutectic solvents. The main focus of the project is to discover the material combinations that leads to an improved cyclability. The overall goal is to determine the best design parameters and operating conditions to maximize the longevity of the battery cell. The research project will be conducted as a collaboration between the Section for Imaging and Structural Analysis (ISA) and the Section for Atomic Scale Modelling (ASM). The experimental work is done in the framework of ISA and the achieved results are related to the modelling activities that are performed in ASM. The research environment is international, inspiring and dynamic.
Responsibilities and tasks
The successful candidate will work in close collaboration with the experimental and simulation groups to discover the optimal material combinations that yield a significantly improved cyclability. Main duties of the position include:
Design and synthesis of metal alloys and liquid electrolytes
Battery cell assembly and electrochemical characterization
Analysing degradation processes of battery cells
Structural and morphological studies of electrodes during battery cycling.
Qualifications
Candidates should have a PhD degree in experimental physics, chemistry, materials science or equivalent. The core skills for the project are:
Experience in assembling and characterizing metal-air batteries
Experience in Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectroscopy (DEMS)
Excellent communication skills in English (both written and verbal)
Ability to work independently and take responsibility for progress and quality of projects
Ability to work in a team environment
Moreover, the successful candidate is:
Highly motivated and enthusiastic about the research topic
Able to work in an organized fashion, document and disseminate scientific results such as writing results in reports and publications
Able to work with diverse colleagues with working on theory and experiments
Assessment
The assessment of the applicants will be made by: Assistant Professor Jin Hyun Chang, Professor Poul Norby, Professor Tejs Vegge and Head of Section Luise Theil Kuhn
