The CBI laboratory is looking for a post-doctoral researcher for its OSMIX project!
The CBI’s MIE (Innovative Materials for Energy) team and the IMAP are looking for a post-doctoral candidate for the OSMIX project, co-funded by MaTerRE.
Its main missions will be:
- to identify a reproducible way to produce selective mono- and multi-pore membranes (by MOF synthesis),
- to create, using the configuration of a chosen membrane, various patterns to identify which one can lower the resistance (convective transport of ions) and increase the Donnan potential (mixing to maintain a sharp concentration gradient) : parameters will be the size of the patterns and their nature (surface charge or conductivity).
According to the candidate skills or affinities, he/she can contribute to variety of applications, such as electrical control of nanofluidic flows, or electrokinetic power conversion. He/she will combine advanced nanofabrication with nanoelectronics, nanofluidics, surface chemistry, material science.
The candidate must have a PhD in physics, chemistry or materials sciences. Knowledge in MOF synthesis, nanopore and micro/nanofluidic characterisation will be needed and skills in clean room, 3D printing and MOF will be greatly appreciated.
To apply, please send a cover letter, a summary of your previous research, your CV with a list of publications and two minimum reference letters to the contacts below.
