The CELLO project aims at combining cellulose derivatives with photonic architectures of different types to use them as opacifying and whitening agents, as an alternative to microplastics. We will use unconventional nanofabrication techniques fully compatible with industrial processes, such as soft nanoimprinting technology. This type of lithography has high resolution while avoiding complex clean room processes, hence allows the exploration of photonics with colloids, biopolymers and more.
Requirements
We look for experts in cellulose derivatives that wish to embark in an exciting adventure with these exciting materials. Candidates must demonstrate experience working with cellulose or other biopolymers.
Details of the position
We offer a 18 months position at our group funded by the ERC Proof of Concept "CELLO"
Tentative Starting date: negotiable during 2022.
