Chalmers
Postdoc in Flow Synthesis of Conjugated Polymers
Gothenburg
FULL TIME
October 10, 2024
Project description
Your research will focus on reducing the complexity of synthesizing conjugated polymers for stretchable electronics through continuous flow chemistry. You will work closely with fellow Ph D students and postdocs at Chalmers, collaborating with partners across Sweden and internationally. This role also offers exciting opportunities to travel and engage with external collaborators.
Information about the division
The Müller Research Group specializes in the physical chemistry and materials science of organic semiconductors, polymer blends, and composites. Our research advances new plastic materials for wearable electronics and energy technologies, including organic solar cells, thermoelectrics and power cables. Collaborations with other universities, research institutes and industry partners play a key role in our work. Our group currently includes 1 Professor, 1 Senior Scientist, 4 Postdocs and 8 Ph D students.
Major responsibilities
The majority of your working time is devoted to your own research, in collaboration with other postdocs and students, as well as collaborating groups. As a Postdoc you are expected to develop your own ideas and communicate scientific results orally as well as in writing.
The position may also include teaching on undergraduate and master's levels as well as supervising master's and/or Ph D students to a certain extent. Another important aspect involves collaboration within academia and with society at large. The position is meritorious for future research duties within academia as well as industry/the public sector.
The successful candidate must have a Ph D degree (or nearing completion) with focus on organic chemistry or polymer synthesis. Experience in designing setups for organic synthesis including setups for flow chemistry is highly desirable. A promising track record of early achievements such as scientific publications is expected. You must have experience with experimental techniques that are commonly used to characterize polymers, in particular NMR and vibrational spectroscopy. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the work, excellent collaboration skills are expected. A very good capability of communicating scientific results in English, both orally and in writing is required.
Contract terms
Full-time temporary employment for a maximum of two (2) years, with the possibility to extend by one (1) more year provided project funding is available and the project goes according to plan. The monthly salary of a Postdoc researcher at Chalmers is about 41'000 SEK before tax (€ 3'600).
To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline (according to the current agreement with the Swedish Agency for Government Employers). Exceptions from the 3-year limit can be made for longer periods resulting from parental leave, sick leave or military service.*
- The date shown in your doctoral degree certificate is the date we use, as this is the date you have met all requirements for the doctoral degree.
