[½»Á÷] PhD Position at Radboud University: In situ NMR for Green Ammonia Synthesis

phd position: in situ nmr for green ammonia synthesis
radboud university ¨c magnetic resonance research center (mrrc)

the mrechem group is seeking a highly motivated phd candidate to work on the development and application of cutting-edge in situ nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) methods to unravel the mechanism of lithium-mediated electrochemical ammonia synthesis, a leading candidate for decarbonizing one of the world¡¯s most important chemical processes.

project background
ammonia production via the haber¨cbosch process underpins modern agriculture but accounts for ~3% of global co₂ emissions. lithium-mediated electrochemical nitrogen reduction offers a promising low-carbon alternative, yet its energy efficiency remains limited due to an incomplete mechanistic understanding. this phd project is part of an nwo vidi-funded program aiming to close this gap by developing interface-selective, operando nmr methods that can directly probe lithium metal, the solid¨celectrolyte interphase (sei), and reactive intermediates under realistic reaction conditions.

your role
as a phd candidate, you will:
•        apply a newly developed ereactor nmr probe to study lithium-mediated ammonia synthesis under operando conditions.
•        investigate the role of proton donors, sei composition, and lithium metal morphology on nitrogen activation and nitridation kinetics.
•        combine multinuclear in situ nmr, solid-state mas nmr, electrochemistry, and complementary techniques such as cryo-em (via international collaborations).
•        contribute to high-impact publications and present your results at international conferences.
•        collaborate with (inter)national research groups in the field of electrochemical ammonia synthesis
•        mentor master¡¯s and bachelor students

what we offer
•        a fully funded 4-year phd position in an internationally leading nmr environment.
•        net monthly salaries (including 16% holiday allowances): year 1 €3548, year 2 €4113, year 3 €4301, year 4 €4501.
•        access to the unique infrastructure of the mrrc, including state-of-the-art ultra-high-field solid-state, solution, benchtop, and custom-built nmr instrumentation.
•        close collaboration with experts in nmr methodology, electrochemistry, and energy materials, as well as industrial and international academic partners.
•        training at the interface of physical chemistry, electrochemistry, and advanced nmr spectroscopy, with strong prospects for an international research career.

candidate profile
we are looking for a candidate with:
•        a master¡¯s degree in chemistry, physical chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, or a related field.
•        strong interest in magnetic resonance spectroscopy, electrochemistry and/or scientific instrumentation development.
•        motivation to work on fundamental questions with clear societal relevance.
•        experience with nmr, battery research or electrochemistry is an advantage.
•        good communication skills, with the ability to clearly present scientific results in writing and in discussions.
•        ability to work effectively in a diverse, international research team, and to collaborate across disciplines.

how to apply
please email evanwenbo.zhao@ru.nl:
•        a motivation letter describing your research interests and background.
•        a cv including education and relevant experience.
•        contact details of at least two referees.
