PhD position on Electrochemical Nanofluidics for Energy Research

Available after April 1st, 2025

The Physics of Complex Fluids group [PCF] offers a PhD position on electrochemical nanofluidics for energy research. By using microfabrication technology, you will fabricate model systems to study fundamental aspects of electrochemical processes under nanoscale confinement and explore novel concept to enhance them.

Using the excellent microfabrication facilities of the MESA+ Institute’s Nanolab, you will construct artificial nanofluidic systems to isolate, probe and manipulate new phenomena and behaviors under confinement. This includes for example electrochemical self-induced convection, an effect recently explored in our labs; creating positive feedback between electrocatalysis and ionics to improve performance; and harnessing gas evolution to enhance the transport of a reagent to a catalyst.
