Postdoctoral Fellow in Atomic-scale Catalyst Synthesis and Process Engineer

at  ETH Zrich

100%, ZURICH, FIXED-TERM

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Fellow in Atomic-scale Catalyst Synthesis and Process Engineering to join our dynamic and interdisciplinary research team. The successful candidate will systematically explore new designs and synthesis routes for supported atomic-scale catalysts with particular emphasis on single-atom catalysts. Their untapped potential primarily for molecular (gas) sensing will be tested. Other applications like energy storage or heterogeneous catalysis are envisioned.

JOB DESCRIPTION

• Design of synthetic pathways and site-specific coordination environments for SACs
• Systematic materials characterization of SACs using state-of-the-art analytic tools
• Aiding to establish process diagnostic tools to assess library of supports materials
• Collaborate closely with interdisciplinary teams, including material scientists, physical chemists and computational material modelers
• Prepare manuscripts, reports, and presentations to disseminate findings
