[Belgium] PhD student Inorganic & Physical Chemistry at Hasselt University

PhD Student Inorganic & Physical Chemistry at Hasselt University

Job Description
The PhD student will conduct research within the frame of a recently acquired interdisciplinary research project (A New Initiative of the Bijzonder onderzoeksfondsï). The candidate will focus on the investigation of (preferentially environmentally friendly) wet-chemical synthesis methods for (new) functional metal oxides (nanoparticles & thin films) with a high potential for innovative applications, due to the combination of their structural, electrical and/or magnetic properties. An important part of the work consists of a study of the relation between the chemical composition, the structure/morpholog y (controlled by the synthesis parameters) and the electrical and/or magnetic properties of the material. For this purpose, the researcher use an extended range of state-of-the- art characterisation techniques and work in a stimulating, multidisciplinary research environment. The research of this project will be carried out in collaboration within the Institute of Materials Research (materials physics & chemistry). The PhD projects should result in the optimisation of synthesis and process conditions and new fundamental insights towards the realisation of functional materials for innovative applications.
