Two PhD Fellowships in Chemistry are available at POLYMAT – Basque Center for Macromolecular Design and Engineering (www.polymat.eu) on the topic:

Synthesis of Organic Materials for Perovskite Solar Cells

The positions are supervised by Prof. Juan Luis Delgado (http://www.polymat.eu/en/groups/hybrids-materials-for-photovoltaics).

Applicants must have a BSc and MSc in Chemistry or Materials Science with a strong background in Organic Chemistry and previous experience in Synthetic Organic Chemistry. Knowledge on the preparation and measurement of Perovskite Solar Cells will be also considered.

Good command of written and spoken English is a must (if preselected, a telephone interview will be carried out before any other appointment is made). The selected candidate is expected to conduct research, write papers, and deliver a PhD thesis.

Applications should be addressed to Prof. Juan Luis Delgado and sent via email in one single PDF to juanluis.delgado@polymat.eu (applications will be considered upon arrival, and the selection process will end when the two positions are covered) including:

(i) A cover letter highlighting their interest in the position.

(ii) Curriculum vitae.

(iii) A short description of previous research (1-2 Pages).

(iv) The names and contact addresses (e-mail) of two academic referees.

Please note that because of the large number of applications expected, we will not be able to give individual feedback to unsuccessful applications
