The Department of Chemical Engineering at KU Leuven is inviting applications for a PhD position. This work will be carried out in the Renewable Materials and Nanotechnology research group of Prof. Wim Thielemans.
About the project:
- Manufacturing of highly porous, hierarchically organized carbonaceous anode materials
- Design and engineering of high-performance cathode materials using tri-component composites
- Optimization of the assembly process to realize superior performance of the supercapacitors
Requirements:
- Candidate must be enthusiastic scientist with an interest in the development of sustainable super capacitor electrode materials and nanoparticle self-assembly.
- Preference will be given to students with a degree in Chemical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry or Bio-Engineering.
- Experience with super capacitor development and characterization and/or substantial general electrochemistry will be a strong plus in the application.
Duration: fully-funded 4-year fellowship
