Applicants will have to choose one of the following fields based on their interest:

(a) Upgrade the current infrastructure with a photoelectron spectroscopy system to study halide perovskite absorbers and interfaces. Reference: RCREQ0005156

(b) Apply novel growth and characterization methods to produce highly efficient halide perovskite solar cells via multi-stage coevaporation. Reference: RCREQ0005152

Requirements:

• Applicant must possess a PhD in Physics, Material Science or Chemistry with excellent grades and scientific publications.
• Very good knowledge in solid state physics, semiconductors, solar cells and surface science is expected.
• Candidates should have excellent problem-solving skills.
• Very good written and oral communication skills in English are expected.

Applications:

Applications should be submitted online and must include the following:

• Motivation letter
• Curriculum vitae, including publication list
