Predoctoral position on the development of infrared photodetectors based on colloidal quantum dot technology
ICFO is offering 1 Predoctoral fellowship position to well-qualified graduate students, who wish to obtain a doctoral degree in the Functional Optoelectronic Nanomaterials Research Group at ICFO.
Our PhD-program brings together top-level training and teaching for young scientists, benefiting from the extensive course offerings of local universities and focused instruction by ICFO professors, in a stimulating, international and interdisciplinary environment. PhD-students have the opportunity to take advantage of our network of excellence, consisting in partners of national and international research institutes and universities, as well as industrial partners in the field.
The successful candidate will be joining the Functional Optoelectronic Nanomaterials group led by Prof. Dr. Gerasimos Konstantatos. The group employ solution-processed functional nanomaterials to address current challenges in optoelectronics, imaging, sensing and renewable energies.
We take advances in nanoscience and we transform them into nanotechnology for solving real-world problems that current technology cannot address or do so at an affordable cost for the benefit of the society. We follow a bottom-up approach engineering the properties of the materials from the atomic level, to the suprananocrystalline level and all the way up to device engineering. We are doing so by assembling a group of physicists, chemists and engineers to tackle interdisciplinary problems. Our focus lies on novel functional nanomaterials, nanostructures and devices for photodetection, light emission and renewable energies.
This fellowship is associated with the research project Generación de Conocimiento 2024, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities.
