PhD position in NMR of battery electrolytes: University of Münster, Institute of Physical Chemistry

PhD position in NMR of battery electrolytes: University of Münster, Institute of Physical Chemistry (TV-L E13, 67% for 3 years). The project employs NMR studies of ion transport (diffusion, migration) in battery electrolytes to elucidate charge transport mechanisms. You will perform multinuclear NMR (¹H, ⁷Li, ¹⁹F) pulsed field gradient experiments, and jointly with electrochemists you will contribute to fitting and modelling a jointly derived database within the theory of ion correlations. The goal is to achieve in-depth understanding of dynamic processes in highly concentrated systems and to provide guidelines for optimization of charge transport in battery electrolytes. You will receive thorough training in state-of-the-art NMR transport methods, and be integrated into a dedicated project team between two universities. The position is funded by a DFG project. Further information and application:
