In the framework of the collaboration between the Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre (IMEC) and Hasselt Univeristy , the Institute for Materials Research (IMO-IMOMEC) offers the following position for a (m/f):

PhD student nanoscale characterisation (2x2 years)
(mandate WNI/2008/029)

Job description
The research will be performed within the research group ‘Organic and Nanostructured Electronic Materials’ in the framework of a colaboration with IMEC-Leuven on ‘Nanoscale electrical characterisation of organic and hybrid semiconductors for novel generation electro-optical applications’, and in particular for organic/hybrid solar cells. The subject of the research is situated in the field of organic and molecular electronics with focus on nanoscale electro-optical and morphological characterisation. The general aim of this research is to obtain a better understanding of the relation between nanomorphology, electronic structure and electrical transport properties, towards improved electro-optical applications and solar cells

Profile and diploma
Master degree (or equivalent) in either physics, chemistry or engineering. Also holders of a Master degree in the field of ‘Bio-electronics and Nanotechnology’ can apply for this position.
