PhD position in NMR of battery electrolytes:
University of Münster, Institute of Physical Chemistry (TV-L E13, 67% for 3 years).
The project employs NMR studies of ion transport (diffusion, migration) in battery electrolytes to elucidate charge transport mechanisms. You will perform multinuclear NMR (1H, 7Li, 19F) pulsed field gradient experiments, and jointly with electrochemists you will contribute to fitting and modelling a jointly derived database within the theory of ion correlations. The goal is to achieve in-depth understanding of dynamic processes in highly concentrated systems and to provide guidelines for optimization of charge transport in battery electrolytes. You will receive thorough training in state-of-the-art NMR transport methods, and be integrated into a dedicated project team between two universities. The position is funded by a DFG project.

Openings for PhD students or postdocs are frequently coming up.
If you have a strong background in Physical Chemistry or Chemical/Material Physics, you like to think quantitatively and analyze mechanisms in molecular detail, then just send a mail and inquire about the possibilities. Postdoc applicants need to have a solid background in NMR.
