Institut für Angewandte Materialien - Energiespeichersysteme (IAM-ESS)
In the Institute for Applied Materials – Energy Storage Systems (IAM-ESS) of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), for a 3-year PhD project, we are looking for a candidate with experience in (solid-sate) NMR spectroscopy. The goal of this project is to characterize local structures but also ion dynamics in electrolyte and electrode materials for Na-ion batteries. This includes probing ion-specific transport mechanisms and interactions on liquid or solid electrolytes, elucidating desoiation/resodiation mechanisms in electrodes during electrochemical cycling, and applying operando NMR to observe sodium speciation, metal plating, and dendrite growth.
