https://liu.se/en/organisation/liu/ifmWe are looking for a PhD student in Materials Science.
Your work assignments
The project, you will be involved in, will focus on investigation of novel 2D materials, named MXenes, using advanced electron microscopy tools. Understanding MXene's atomic structure and controlling their surfaces are foreseen as an ultimate route to achieve their enhanced functional properties necessary for intended applications. Your tasks consist of characterizing the MXenes' atomic structures and deriving their surface modification mechanisms by applying various environmental treatment routes. MXenes will be studied at the atomic level using state-of-the-art transmission electron microscopy and dedicated in situ environmental setup at LiU's microscopy laboratory.
As a doctoral student, you devote most of your time to doctoral studies and the research projects of which you are part. Your work may also include teaching or other departmental duties, up to a maximum of 20% of full-time.
Your workplace
The Thin Film Physics division conducts research as well as undergraduate and postgraduate education in materials physics. You will be part of the Materials Microscopy Unit, that coordinates electron microscopy at the national level.
Your qualifications
You have graduated at Master's level in physics, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, materials science/engineering with a minimum of 240 credits, at least 60 of which must be in advanced courses. Alternatively, you have gained essentially corresponding knowledge in another way.
Knowledge of nanostructured materials, structural characterization and electron microscopy techniques will be advantageous.
Fluent oral and written English are mandatory.
Good communication, problem-solving, and collaboration skills are highly desirable.
Terms of employment
When taking up the post, you will be admitted to the program for doctoral studies. More information about the doctoral studies at each faculty is available at Doctoral studies at Linköping University
