ICFO Postdoctoral Position in Sustainable Energy Materials Development

We are seeking an exceptional researcher to join the CO2 Mitigation Accelerated by Photons group at ICFO, led by Prof. Dr. F. Pelayo García de Arquer. The successful candidate will contribute to developing novel strategies to overcome critical resource bottlenecks in energy devices.

The postdoctoral researcher will lead the design of novel approaches to implement recyclable energy conversion devices, including electrolyzers, batteries, and solar cells. This will involve developing active and passive strategies.

Active strategies will focus on designing devices that can be recycled without compromising performance, including the development of electrode supports, catalysts, and active absorbing layers. Passive strategies will focus on innovative ways to extract and purify critical raw materials from non-standard feedstock.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work in a vibrant project at the intersection of materials science, electrochemistry, optoelectronics, and engineering. They will utilize state-of-the-art fabrication and characterization facilities.

Requirements:

  • Internationally-recognized Ph.D.-equivalent degree in Electrochemistry, Chemistry, Thin Film Fabrication Processes, and/or Optoelectronics.
  • Strong background in materials science, synthetic experience related to metals, metal oxides, and organic and perovskite semiconductors.
  • Experience in water/CO2 electrolysis, electrode fabrication, and membrane integration.

ICFO is an equal opportunity employer. Candidates are selected exclusively on merit and potential based on submitted application material.

Salaries for ICFO Postdoctoral positions are assigned by the Selection Committee, based on experience and seniority of the applicant, as well as the assigned tasks and responsibilities within the group.
