1 PhD Student Position: New Concepts in Catalysis - In situ Spectroscopy an

at  FriedrichAlexanderUniversitt ErlangenNrnberg

DAS AUFGABENGEBIET UMFASST U. A.:

Research topic will cover surface science studies on model catalysts using in situ spectroscopy and microscopy.
The research project aims at acquiring molecular level understanding of catalytic processes using innovative materials concepts. The range of experimental methods will comprise state-of-the-art spectroscopy (vibrational spectroscopy) and microscopy (scanning tunnelling microscopy, atomic force microscopy) in ultra-high vacuum at liquid/solid interfaces and gas/solid interfaces. The project is embedded into interdisciplinary and international cooperations involving partner groups from natural science and engineering (https://www.sfb1452.research.fau.eu/).

NOTWENDIGE QUALIFIKATION:

We expect flexibility and commitment, but also communication skills and the capability to work in a team. For application as a PhD student, a diploma or master degree in chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, or materials science is required. Specific experience in the research field is not mandatory.
