Job Summary
Position Summary
Postdoctoral Associate Opportunity: From Waste Tires to Electrode Materials for Batteries and Supercapacitors The Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering has an excellent opportunity for a Postdoctoral Associate in the Amit Goyal research group to conduct applied research in synthesis device fabrication and characterization of Na-ion based batteries and supercapacitors using carbon electrodes derived from waste tires. The work involves: Developing novel methodologies for extracting activated carbon from waste tires Fabricating coin cells Performing full electrochemical characterization towards realizing performance approaching the best reported performance for Na-ion addition the project involves design and fabrication of supercapacitors from tire-derived carbon and having high performance. It is expected that the Postdoctoral Associate will work independently establish all experimental processes and instrumentation for the work. Visa status: Current US residents preferred. For overseas residents we can sponsor for J-1 exchange visa Term: 2-3 years depending on performance Learn more: Our benefits where we prioritize your well-being and success to enhance every aspect of your life. Being a part of the University at Buffalo community. As an Equal Opportunity / Affirmative Action employer the Research Foundation will not discriminate in its employment practices due to an applicants race color religion sex sexual orientation gender identity national origin and veteran or disability status.
Minimum Qualifications
Education: Ph.D. in chemistry materials science chemical engineering mechanical engineering or a related field completed within the last five years or soon to be completed is required. Prior battery fabrication and electrochemical device characterization Prior supercapacitor fabrication and electrochemical device characterization Experience with advanced materials characterization techniques Strong motivation and ability to work independently
Preferred Qualifications
