PhD Position Available in Polymer Semiconductors

A PhD position is available at POLYMAT and DIPC (San Sebastian, Spain) to conduct research in NUCLEATION AND CRYSTALLIZATION OF SEMI-CRYSTALLINE SEMICONDUCTIVE POLYMERS. The project is aimed at gaining full understanding of how the solid state microstructure is generated in new generations of high-performing polymers for organic photovoltaics (e.g. PBDB-T, PBDB-T-2Cl, etc.) via crystallization. The final goal will be to establish relevant interrelationships between the processing, the structure and the (optoelectronic) properties of this polymers. This is a joint doctoral program between Dr. Jaime Martín (EHU/UPV – POLYMAT) and Prof. Alejandro J. Müller (EHU/UPV – POLYMAT).
