Job Description:
When Herbert Kroemer (Nobel Prize in Physics) coined the famous phrase "the interface is the device", he referred to the success of devices based on thin inorganic semiconductor films for photonic and electronic applications. This statement also holds for organic semiconductors, which are predestined by deposition on large-area and flexible substrates to be the electrically and optically active layers with important applications in electronics, lighting, photovoltaics, and displays.
A good number of interfaces (organic/organic and organic/inorganic) are inherent to all organic electronic devices and, because of their relevant role in device performance, Kroemer's phrase can be extended: "The interfaces are the organic devices".
With that certainty and the experience of the Physical Chemistry of Surfaces and Interfaces (PCSI) group, we offer a doctoral position. The doctoral project aims to obtain structural control of organic semiconductors thin films for the near future manufacture of more reliable organic electronic devices. The proposal points to a detailed microscopic understanding of crystallography, polymorphism, role of interfaces, as well as to determine the conditions for good thermal stability of thin films prepared by various physical and chemical methodologies.
Furthermore, the use of multi-component thin films (e. g. , donor/acceptor organics) and proper fabrication protocols will allow obtaining co-crystalline charge transfer complexes (CTC) thin films, paving the way for applications in NIR photo-detection and photo-thermal conversion.
The doctoral thesis will include the combination of state-of-the-art methodologies for correlative and in-situ experiments. In particular, in-situ and real-time characterization during thin film growth and/or post-growth treatments (e. g. , thermal and solvent annealing) using diverse modes of scanning probe microscopy, one of the most versatile characterization tools in nanoscience, combined with powerful X-ray synchrotron techniques.
Application Process:
Candidates with a good background and motivated attitude for experimental tasks must hold a Master's degree in materials science, physics, nanoscience, nanotechnology or related fields at the moment of the formal application. We encourage interested candidates to send a CV and motivation letter to the following researchers:
The doctoral position will be financed under project PID-NB-I00.
