PhD Position: Investigating Ion Migration in Perovskite Solar Cells

2 dagen geleden


Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Nederland AMOLF Voltijd

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon-based solar cells. At AMOLF, we are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to investigate the stability of perovskite solar cells by controlling ion migration.

Work Activities

The successful candidate will focus on understanding the mechanisms behind ion migration in perovskite solar cells. This will involve a combination of experimental and theoretical work, including measurements of ion motion in the frequency and time domain, as well as drift-diffusion simulations.

The project is part of a larger national initiative, SolarNL, aimed at supporting the Dutch solar photovoltaic industry. The PhD candidate will join a team of researchers from across the Netherlands to tackle fundamental research challenges that underpin industrial activities.

Qualifications

We invite applications from highly motivated candidates with a strong background in physics, chemistry, materials science, or engineering. A keen interest in solar cells and a willingness to work in a collaborative environment are essential.

Work Environment

AMOLF is a leading research institute in the field of materials science and nanotechnology. Our research focuses on understanding the unique characteristics of metal halide perovskite materials and developing new functional materials. The institute offers a highly collaborative and supportive environment, with a variety of courses designed to enhance research skills.

Working Conditions
  • The working atmosphere at the institute is informal and collaborative.
  • The position is a full-time appointment for the duration of four years.
  • The starting salary is 2,781 Euros gross per month, with a range of employment benefits.
  • After successful completion of the PhD research, a PhD degree will be granted at a Dutch University.
  • AMOLF assists new foreign PhD students with housing and visa applications and compensates their transport costs and furnishing expenses.
