Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

The LUT School of Engineering Sciences is offering a fully funded doctoral student (junior researcher)position.

Position

The position is connected to the Systems and Engineering Science Doctorate (SEED) programme, which is a European MSCA programme running from 2023 to 2028. The programme will train 13 highly skilled doctoral candidates (DC). The candidates will receive strong guidance from two high-quality supervisors from universities and one expert from an industry company. The systematic secondment scheme builds on each DC having an academic secondment in an international university of high standing and excellence and a non-academic secondment in industry in Finland.

Job Description

  • Completion of the doctoral degree within four years 
    • doctoral dissertation includes typically 4 peer-reviewed publications on the research and the summary thesis on the work
    • Complementary studies 40 ECTS Credits
  • Assisting in teaching

Research theme: Study of defects in lithium and sodium-ion batteries

The project will address the characterization of electrode structures, charge and discharge mechanism and redox processes aimed to improve the performance of new energy batteries and to develop the design of electrode materials. The main topic is the study of structural defects induced in the battery cathode by migration of lithium and sodium ions. Especially, the effect of sodium will be considered since the intercalation of this element can introduce more defects in the cathode matrix than lithium.
