Overview
Within the new “Molecular Materials” group at the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering we design and synthesize new self-assembled materials. Based on a small molecule approach, the aim is to make materials for a broad range of applications ranging from single molecule electronics to sensors and nano medicine.
This project will focus on the development of chemicals that allow for selective, lithography free functionalisation of nanostructures with sub nanometer resolution. The work will take it’s offspring from organic synthesis, and will also include nanoparticle and nanorod synthesis, surface functionalisation and characterisation.
Job description
The goal is to develop new chemistries for selective functionalisation of surfaces, nanoparticles and nanorods.
Key parts of the work will be
•Design and synthesis of new organic molecules
•Synthesis and functionalisation of inorganic nanoparticles and nanorods
•Surface functionalisation and characterisation
•Characterisation of surfaces and materials
The position is limited to maximum 4 years and 3 months full-time research studies. Some duties at the department, mainly teaching in the undergraduate or masters courses, distributed over the whole time of the position is included.
Required qualifications
Suitable background for candidates is a master in Chemistry, Nano-Science or Materials Science with a focus on Organic Chemistry. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the work, the candidate is expected to have good collaboration skills and be able to communicate in English, both orally and in writing.
Application procedure
The application shall be written in English and include the following items:
1.An application of a maximum of one A4 page containing your specific qualifications for the position
2.Attested copies of education certificates, including grade reports and other documents
3.Curriculum Vitae
4.Letters of recommendation and name of reference persons (optional)
The application shall be sent electronically as pdf or zipped documents. Please use the button at the foot of the page to reach the application form.
If any material is not available electronically or cannot be transferred to pdf format, the material can be sent as a hard copy to Registrar. The applicants name and the reference number (2010/279) must be written on the first page of the application.
