PhD in Materials Science and Engineering China

We always welcome highly self-motivated students and young researchers in the field of materials science, physics and chemistry to join us.

Open positions for Ph.D and Master students supported by the Chinese Government Scholarship-Chinese University Program” of Zhejiang University, and the Zhejiang University Scholarship.

Please refer to the following link for more details on applying for the scholarship:

There should be 1-2 openings per year my group. Candidates with strong background may be selected through a special scholarship program (120,000 RMB per year on average). Please direclty contact Dr. Jin for further information.

Open positions for Ph.D and postdoc fellowship: Current there are several postdoc positions available in the following subjects:

1) Urgent call: Atomic structure characterization and chemical analysis of emerging novel materials. A successful candidate should have a strong background in experimental electron microscopy and associated spectroscpy. She/he will work closely with a few groups from Physics Department on superconductors, Weyl semimetals, and topological insulators etc;

2) development and applications of liquid-cell STEM, TEM in nanomaterials. Our primary research interests are to reveal the nucleation and growth mechanism of nanocrystal in solution. Strong background either on electron microscopy or chemical synthesis is required;

3) To understand the radiation chemistry associated with energetic electrons-water interactions, a key factor influencing the reactions in liquid-cell S/TEM;

4) To study the atomic and electronic structures of “old” carbon nanostructures, like peapods, doped graphene etc. A successful candidate is preferred to have some background with these materials, and some training on electron microscopy. The whole project will be conducted in close collaboration with a few research groups, including Dr. Sumio Iijima.

Please contact Dr. Jin for further details on these projects.
