- IMDEA Materials Institute is a public research organization founded in 2007 by Madrid’s regional government to carry out research of excellence in Material Science and Engineering by attracting talent from all over the world to work in an international and multidisciplinary environment. IMDEA Materials has grown rapidly since its foundation and currently includes more than 120 researchers from 22 nationalities and has become one of the leading research centers in materials in Europe which has received the María de Maeztu seal of excellence from the Spanish government. The research activities have been focused on the areas of materials for transport, energy, and health care and the Institute has state-of-the-art facilities for processing, characterization and simulation of advanced materials.

More information can be found at our webpage.
Description
IMDEA Materials Institute has an immediate opening for a doctoral research position on the topic of “Synthesis of Metal Oxide Nanowires for Energy Applications”.

This PhD project focuses on the growth of nanowires and their assembly into macroscopic electrode materials. It is based on the synthesis of nanowires suspended in a gas stream through floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition (FCCVD). The overall aim is to combine the use of computational tools and experimental methods to rationalise the conditions leading to nanowire growth and rate-controlling growth factors, in order to optimize growth conditions and expand the scope of materials that can be synthesized via this technique.

The student will have access to multiple FCCVD reactors and state-of-the-art gas-phase analysis equipment, which will provide experimental data for a wide range of nanowires of great technological interest, such as metal oxides used in energy and compound semiconductors used in optoelectronics.
Requirements
Master’s degree in physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, or equivalent.
- Experience or interest in (nano)material synthesis, characterization, and/or computational modelling of materials (e.g. thermodynamics and kinetics) will be positively evaluated.
- Scientific curiosity and attention to details.
- English (written and oral) proficiency.
Conditions
Full time employment and enrolment in a relevant doctoral programme.
- The doctoral contract is for a duration of 36 months.
- Position available immediately and open until filled.

Besides on-the-job technical training, IMDEA Materials Institute is committed to training the Institute’s scientists and staff in “soft” or transversal skills. See the available training here.

Meet some of our alumni to see what it is like to work with us.

The working language of the Institute is English. Full command of the English language is required in all positions.
