Post-Doctoral position on the synthesis of Indium arsenide colloidal quantum dots for electroluminescent devices. Commitment & contract: Collaboration contract Location: Genoa Step into a world of endless possibilities, together let's leave something for the future! At IIT, we are committed to advancing human-centered Science and Technology to address the most urgent societal challenges of our era. Our approach integrates cutting-edge tools and technology, empowering researchers to push the limits of knowledge and innovation.
We are dedicated to providing equal employment opportunities and fostering diversity in all its forms, creating an inclusive environment.
THE ROLE The Photonic Nanomaterials research unit is looking for one Post-doctoral scientist to develop and study novel Indium arsenide (InAs) colloidal quantum dots presenting emission in the near infrared (800 – 1550 nm). The successful candidate will work in the framework of the European Innovation Council Pathfinder Challenges project "RADIANT" (Chiral Light Emitting Diodes based in Photonic Architectures, grant Agreement n. 101162112). The aim of the project is to synthesize highly emissive InAs quantum dots and employ them in innovative electroluminescent devices promoting circularly polarized emission.
The selected candidate will focus on the synthesis of highly emissive InAs quantum dots based on core-shell architecture (e.g. InAs/ZnSe or similar) and then characterize their emission both in solution and in solid films. The characterization activities will be supported by various research facilities available at IIT. Importantly, the candidate is expected to support also the fabrication of electroluminescent devices and engage in collaboration with other group members working in project "RADIANT".
