Job Opportunity
The Karlsruher Institut für Technologie is seeking a highly skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Institute for Applied Material – Energy Storage Systems (IAM-ESS).
The successful candidate will be part of the "Electrolytes and Electrochemical Methods" group, focusing on polymer-based solid-state electrolytes, electrolyte additives, and degradation mechanisms in electrolytes, particularly for post-Li battery technologies.
The project 'Characterisation and reduction of ageing processes on electrode materials in potassium-ion batteries' aims to answer fundamental mechanistic questions on the dominant ageing phenomena on negative and positive electrodes in K-ion batteries.
The key objectives of the project include:
- Developing sustainable (e.g. fluorine-free) electrolyte and electrode compositions to improve battery life
- Analysing electrochemical cell data of electrodes in both small-format coin cells and large-format pouch cells
- Studying material ageing and degradation processes using bulk and surface-sensitive characterisation methods, including ex-situ and in-situ/operando X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and photoelectron spectroscopy
- Investigating the influence of material expansion during insertion/intercalation processes using dilatometry and electron scanning microscopy
Requirements
The ideal candidate will have:
- A diploma or master degree in chemistry, material science or physics
- Extensive knowledge and several years of experience in the field of polymer characterization, impedance spectroscopy, Li- and post-Li batteries
- Self-reliance, organisational skills, team-oriented working
- Fluency in both written and oral English
Salary and Benefits
The salary category is 13, depending on the fulfillment of professional and personal requirements.
