Missions

The candidate will be responsible for preparing polymer binders for hybrid electrical energy storage based on electro-polymerizable redox monomers. The materials will need to be characterized and tested for organic battery applications.

Activités

- polymers synthesis
- metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions
- Schlenk-line protocol
- cell assembling and testing
- Development of semi-annual project progress reports and research dissemination

Compétences

The candidate must hold a Ph.D. in organic chemistry, possess expertise in metal-catalyzed coupling reactions, and be familiar with controlled atmosphere handling protocols. Basic knowledge of electrochemistry is desirable, and experience with BET, TGA, and DSC techniques would be a plus. The candidate should be capable of working in a team, be self-motivated, possess good communication skills, and have a proficient level of English language proficiency.

Contexte de travail

Founded in 1988, MOLTECH-Anjou (CNRS - University of Angers) integrates more than 80 people (professors, assistant-professors, researchers, engineers, administrative staffs, post-doctoral fellows and PhD students) which are organized in five research teams of chemists and physicists.
A key characteristic of MOLTECH-Anjou lies on the convergence of the research topics, which are all focused on smart molecular materials and which are supported by expertises ranging from theoretical chemistry and molecular modeling, organic and inorganic syntheses, coordination chemistry, physical and analytical chemistry, material sciences,… to photonics. These skills are implemented into fields related to the optical and electronic properties of organic materials, with a special focus for addressable materials, molecular electronics and nanostructuration.
The candidate will join the SCL Team and work on the ANR HOMERE project under the supervision of Dr Charles Cougnon.
