Offer Description
The Photonic for Energy and Sustainable Environment group (PEASER), and, in
particular, the Technologies for Energy (TEN) laboratory of the Institute of Optics has published a vacancy for a postdoctoral position about “Chalcogenide thin-film solar cells for integrated photovoltaic applications”.
Summary: The Technologies for Energy (TEN) Laboratory focuses on proposing and designing advanced materials and devices for sustainable energy. Among other topics, the TEN Lab investigates the development of emerging photovoltaic materials for sustainable energy conversion, with special emphasis on thin-film and low-dimensional chalcogenide materials.
The overall objective of this position is mainly the fabrication and characterization of chalcogenide-based solar cells on different substrates for indoor photovoltaic applications.
The framework of this work is included in the activities of the european SUNLIFE project (Versatility of sustainable, low-cost chalcogenide thin-film solar cells – CETP-FP-2023-00137). The project is a consortium formed by different universities, research centers and companies from Spain, France, Portugal, Estonia, Italy and Hungary.
