PhD Student in Electrochemical Conversion of Biomass
Ohio University – Athens, OH
The Center for Electrochemical Engineering Research (CEER) at Ohio University is searching for PhD students to join a team of researchers working on electrochemical conversion of biomass. The successful candidate will develop materials and processes for electrochemical conversion of biomass to fuels and industrial chemicals, including developing electrocatalysts and reactor systems. Product stream analysis is an integral component of this program.
Fuel Cell Scientist
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory – Berkeley, CA
The fuel cell program at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) has a position available at the Career Research Scientist level in the area of advanced diagnostics and mathematical modeling for fuel-cell and related electrochemical systems. Depending on the level of experience, the person will serve as a Principal Investigator in the associated fuel cell work within the EERE and other funded Fuel Cell Technologies Program.
Postdoc in Microfabrication
Georgia Institute of Technology – Atlanta, GA
This is postdoctoral position at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, GA for up to two years. The topic concerns the microfabrication of new, passive electronic components into polymer-based substrates for electronic packaging. Of particular interest is the integration of high-value inductors and the introduction of new materials, including ferro-magnetic core and low dielectric constant insulators. The candidate should have experience in microfabrication including lithography and metallization.
PHD Position in Polymer Electrolyte Membranes
Lund University – Lund, Sweeden
PhD student position in Polymer Chemistry at the Department of Chemistry, Lund University in Sweden. Lund University has for a number of years been ranked among the world’s top 100 universities. The project is focused on the synthesis and structure-morphology-property relationships of future polymer electrolyte materials for energy applications, and includes advanced synthesis and molecular characterization of new monomers and polymers, preparation of functional membranes, as well as studies of morphology and properties – especially directed towards use in fuel cells and batteries.
