Job description
Offer DescriptionCreated in 1995, the Bordeaux Institute of Condensed Matter Chemistry (ICMCB) focuses its research on Solid State Chemistry, Materials Science and Chemistry and Process: designing, preparing, shaping and characterizing materials in order to discover, control and optimize specific functions. The ICMCB carries out fundamental research on model materials and/or materials with potential applications.
The ICMCB is a UMR with an average of 270 agents (permanent and non-permanent), with 3 tutelles, hosted by the CNRS and in total ZRR. The position is located in a sector covered by the Protection of Scientific and Technical Potential (PSTP), and therefore requires, in accordance with the regulations, that the arrival of the agent be authorized by the competent authority of MESR.This PhD proposal deals with the investigation of new positive electrode materials for Na-ion batteries, and especially their chemical and thermal stability depending on their composition and structure. The research work will include syntheses using coprecipitation and hydrothermal reactions, evaluation of the electrochemical performances in Na-ion batteries, characterization of the structural, redox and aging processes occurring upon cycling combining diffraction and spectroscopic techniques … The goal is to develop new materials for high power density Na-ion batteries.
This research will be performed at ICMCB, in collaboration with Pr Christian Masquelier at LRCS (University Picardie Jules Verne), in the frame of the PEPR Batteries program driven by CNRS and CEA and launched to support innovations and development of new generations of batteries to be transferred rapidly towards French and European gigafactories.
A degree from a relevant Master course is required (Solid state chemistry and physics, Inorganic materials for Energy Storage and Conversion, Electrochemistry of materials …) as well as good English level, good communication skills and team spirit.RequirementsResearch Field Chemistry Education Level PhD or equivalentResearch Field Physics Education Level PhD or equivalentResearch Field Technology Education Level PhD or equivalentLanguages FRENCH Level BasicResearch Field Chemistry Years of Research Experience NoneResearch Field Physics Years of Research Experience NoneResearch Field Technology Years of Research Experience NoneAdditional InformationWebsite for additional job detailsWork Location(s)Number of offers available 1 Company/Institute Institut de Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Bordeaux Country France City PESSAC GeofieldWhere to apply WebsiteContact CityPESSAC WebsiteSTATUS: EXPIRED
