Working field:
Research on colloidal nanomaterials and small organic molecules (ligands, linkers etc.), involving their synthesis, characterization and deposition on a variety of substrates, including ultrathin van der Waals semiconductors. Our foal is to use these materials to controllably and reversibly manipulate properties of underlying nanosheets. The work is based on a close collaboration with Prof. Dr. Chernikov (TUD) and Dr. Fery (IPF) in Dresden and other collaborators on a national and international level.
Requirements:
university degree (master or comparable) in Chemistry and PhD degree in Synthetic Chemistry or Material Science. Interest to conduct basic and application-related research; experience in the synthesis of colloidal nanomaterials and/or organic compounds, experience with Schlenk-technique; standard characterization methods for these materials; excellent command of English language; excellent computer skills; high self-motivation. Ideally ready-to-use and up-to-date knowledge of quantum dots materials and 2D materials.
What we offer:
You will join a dynamic interdisciplinary team of enthusiastic scientists who pursue their research agenda by creativity, mutual exchange of knowledge and collaboration across disciplines and institutions.
