PhD Position in Chemistry

Tasks

You will synthesize a variety of large -conjugates with tailored functional groups for self-assembled nanostructures on surfaces and/or for studying in-depth photo-induced electron and energy transfer as well as their applications in (opto)electronic devices. Certainly, organic synthesis is a crucial tool for fine-tuning the electronic properties of such -conjugated systems, leading to novel self-assembled nanostructures. The project involves fundamental studies of molecules designed with unique electronic properties, developing methods to grow molecular structures where spin states can be manipulated electrically, and using on-surface reactions for 2D covalent networks.
