One Opening for Research Engineer cum PhD student in Nanoscale Heat Transfer in Li-ion Batteries
Description:
My lab currently has one opening for a Research Engineer position to apply novel ultrafast pump-probe technique to investigate heat transfer in Li-ion batteries. The Research Engineer is encouraged to apply for admission to and enroll in the Department of Mechanical Engineering in the National University of Singapore as a part-time PhD student, and will be compensated equivalent to a Research Scholar (including tuition fees) in the department. All undergraduate students who will graduate by July 2020 are welcomed to apply. Candidates with a Master's degree are welcomed to apply, but a M.Sc. degree is not necessary. Please note that GRE and TOEFL test scores are not required for the application.
Application Procedures:
To apply, please send a current and comprehensive CV, including the names and contact information for three references to mpekyk@nus.edu.sg. In the CV, please also include details of your educational background, including the average score and ranking of your undergraduate studies (and Master's studies, if any), your research experience and publications, if any. Please submit your application to me immediately. The application will be closed once suitable candidates are identified, without further notices.

Our research focuses on measuring, understanding and manipulating heat transfer at nanometer and atomistic scales, via state-of-the-art, home built characterization tools. Knowledge of nanoscale and atomic scale heat transfer is crucial for a wide range of applications, including in thermal management of emerging electronic and optoelectronic devices, and in design of novel nanostructures with unprecedented thermal properties. For examples, in thermoelectrics, detailed understanding of nanoscale heat transfer facilitates development of novel nanomaterials for more efficient energy conversion from waste heat into useful electricity, while in photothermal therapy, knowledge of interfacial heat conduction enhances heat dissipation from gold nanoparticles to selectively induce hyperthermia in malignant cancer cells. One of the keys to advancing the frontier of nanoscale and atomic-scale heat transfer is novel characterization techniques to measure heat flow at such a small length scale, which is where our expertise lies. |
