The project involves collaborative efforts of two experimental + one theory groups focused on Zn-ion rechargeable battery materials (synthesis, characterization, and performance measurements), as well as an industry partner. Our role is to provide an atomistic insight into electrochemical mechanisms that govern the performance of cathode materials and help to interpret experimental observations.

The starting date will be either May 2022 or Sep 2022 at latest. A scholarship is available for 4 yrs. More details about the application process can be found at http://olegrubel.mcmaster.ca/jobs.html
Priority is given to applicants with a prior experience in materials modelling. The plan is to have the first round of interview completed within the next 2-3 weeks (before the New Year).

Thank you for the interest
