Dear friends,
Can you please distribute the following UPDATED vacancy:
In the group Organic and Polymer Chemistry of Hasselt University (Belgium), the
following position (m/f) is available:
Post-doc grant
Organic and Polymer Chemistry
(2 years)
Mission
Our research group “Organic and Polymer Chemistry”, a division of IMO (Institute
of Material Research), is located on the Hasselt University campus in Belgium
and has a strong competence in Polymer Chemistry and Polymer Analysis. Via the
IMOMEC division, there is a close collaboration with IMEC, the biggest
independent research centre in electronics in Europe. One of the core
activities of the group relates to the synthesis and characterization of
conjugated or conductive polymers for plastic electronics, e.g. P-LED’s,
organic transistors, organic solar cells, chemosensors, biosensors, etc…
A “Marie-Curie Research Training Network” project (4 years) has started since
01/10/2006. The title of the project is "Development of n-type polymer
materials used as alternative to soluble C60 derivatives and their use in
organic solar cells" (acronym ‘SOLARNTYPE’). In this context a post-doc will be
hired originating from the EU or Associated States (Iceland, Israel,
Liechtenstein, Norway or Switserland).
Profile
The activity planned aims to perform research in the field of n-type conductive
polymers for photovoltaic applications, in particular characterisation of the
molecular dynamics and phase morphology in polymer/polymer blends by
solid-state NMR spectroscopy and microscopy. The research will take place in
close collaboration with the division of material physics of IMO.
Diploma
Applicants must possess a PhD in Chemistry, Material Chemistry or Chemical
Engineering and should be interested in the field of materials science and
polymer characterization. Experience in solid-state NMR is a plus.
