LINKÖPING UNIVERSITY
Hereby advertises a position as

PhD student in lead-free perovskites for optoelectronic applications
formally based at the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, IFM

Duties
The PhD candidate will focus on the development of lead-free perovskites for efficient optoelectronic devices, aided by advanced characterizations.

Lead halide perovskites have emerged as promising semiconducting materials for different applications (solar cells, light-emitting diodes, detectors, and lasers) as a result of their superior optoelectronic properties. However, the toxicity of the lead in these perovskites represents a serious issue which could be an obstacle for their practical applications. Therefore, we are motivated to develop lead-free perovskites. Lead-free perovskites are a large family of materials with rich structural and functional diversities, and represent a promising material platform which is well suited for a range of optical, electric, magnetic-related applications.

The group led by Dr. Feng Gao, funded by the ERC Starting Grant, is a young and fast-growing research group. The group focuses on solution-processed energy materials/ devices, mainly based on semiconducting perovskites and organic semiconductors. For recent progress on lead-free perovskites, please refer to our review paper in Advanced Materials.

As a PhD student you will primarily devote yourself to your research. As a PhD student you are limited to work with education and administration up to 20 percent of full time.

Qualifications
The applicant has to have or soon to have finished a Master in Science or equivalent in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry or equivalent. It is an advantage to have prior experimental experience of what is described in the job description above-especially that related to materials development and/ or spectroscopy.

Qualified to PhD studentships are only those who are or have been admitted to graduate studies.

Appointment time
The appointment will be until further notice for a maximum of one year at a time. A doctoral student may not be employed during a period exceeding eight years. The total time of appointment must not exceed the equivalent of four years ' full time research training.

Starting date
By agreement.

Salary
The salary for PhD students is based on the department's salary scale.
