Technologies for energy storage are essential for our sustainable development. All solid-state batteries enable electrochemical energy storage at higher density and security. Continuous development of solid-state electrolytes aims at increasing their ionic conductivity and understanding their failure mechanisms. Both aspects can be governed by the...

Two-terminal perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells are showing great promise to become the dominant commercial photovoltaic technology in the future, with the highest laboratory efficiency being 33.9% for a 1 cm x cm device. Further development in the efficiency of these devices is limited by the low fill factor, due to resistive losses arising from the low...

**Your Job**: DNA replication is a biological process of producing two identical copies of DNA from one original DNA molecule. It occurs in all living organisms and plays the most essential role in biological inheritance. The process is initiated from multiple genomic locations which are still poorly understood even for buddying yeast. In this project one is...

The Ernst Ruska-Centre for Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Electrons (ER-C) operates as a centre of excellence and national user facility, in which the structure and properties of materials can be revealed on the atomic scale using the world’s most powerful and versatile transmission electron microscopes. The materials that can be studied range from...

The EU aims to be climate-neutral by 2050 - an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The action plans to reach this goal is being undertaken both at national and municipal level, mostly independently. The thesis topic is aimed at comparing the national climate action plans with the municipal ones, to identify misalignments. Such investigations...

**Your Job**: Your tasks: - Support us in preparing samples and performing confocal microscopy - Data-analytics using the programming language R or Python to study the role of various physical parameters such as adsorption, bridging and depletion on the aggregation and deformation of RBCs Your responsibilities include: - Preparation of samples containing...

**Your Job**: At IEK-9, we are developing exciting interdisciplinary methods to investigate the key mechanisms in batteries and electrolysis using pulsed NMR. By understanding the spin states that have to be experimentally prepared we are tailoring magnetic pulses to push the limits of NMR in operando experiments, probing for example interfaces or membranes....
