INL is seeking an Electron Microscopist to join the Advanced Electron Microscopy Imaging and Spectroscopy Facility (AEMIS) to support the facility in the general area of Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), with a focus on the characterisation of beam sensitive samples using Cryo-TEM. The position is part of the CryoEM-PT National Advanced Electron Microscopy Network for Health and Life Sciences under which a state-of-the-art 200kV cryo-TEM will be soon installed at INL. The project has the following reference number: NORTE-01-0145-FEDER-081197.

A new Postdoctoral position is open within the NANOMOL Group, at ICMAB-CSIC, in the framework of the CSIC Interdisciplinary Thematic Platform (PTI) on Quantum Technologies. This specific position is in the field of Organic Free Radicals.

Main tasks of the candidate
Synthesis and characterization of organic radicals.
Preparation of composite (polymer + organic radical) coatings.
Surface assembly of the synthesized radicals and,
Structural characterization of compounds and functional materials.

Requirements:
The fellow should have an internationally recognized PhD degree (or equivalent) in a relevant discipline (Chemistry or Materials Science).
The ideal candidate should have a strong background in organic synthesis and material sciences, and on their physicochemical characterization. Knowledge in Electron Paramagnetic Resoance (EPR) will be a plus in the evaluation of the candidate’s experience.

Details of the position:
Contract duration: two years

OFFER DESCRIPTION
Li-ion battery is ubiquitous and has emerged as the major contender to power electric vehicles, yet Li-ion is slowly but surely reaching its limits and controversial debates on lithium supply cannot be ignored. New sustainable battery chemistries must be developed and the most appealing alternatives are to use Ca or Mg metal anodes which would bring a breakthrough in terms of energy density relying on much more abundant elements.
Currently, the main bottleneck for the development of Ca or Mg based technologies is the lack of electrolyte allowing for reversible Ca or Mg electrodeposition and reversible cation insertion in cathode materials.
Preliminary work conducted in ICMAB allowed to report on an electrolyte formulation that allows the operation of calcium metal anode (Nature Materials, 15 (2016) 169) in the presence of a solid electrolyte interphase (Energy Environ. Sci., 13 (2020) 3423). The postdoctoral researcher will be in charge of characterizing both the active materials (anode and cathode) and the electrolyte through a large variety of electrochemical techniques.
The position is in the framework of an ERC starting grant project (CAMBAT, proposal ID: 715087).

BENEFITS
- A full-time 1-year contract with possibility of extension.
- Remuneration according to individual’s qualification/experience
- Incorporation: as soon as possible

SELECTION PROCESS
The candidate must submit (a) a cover letter highlighting the interest in the position, (b) a full CV including a research summary highlighting the most significant results, and (c) the names and emails of at least two referees that might be willing to write down a recommendation letter. Send the information to Alexandre Ponrouch (aponrouch@icmab.es).
