Message:
This project is part of a European Training Network and will employ start-of-the-art quantum-mechanical simulation techniques to investigate the benefits of functionalising CNTs for the self-diagnosis of CNT composites based on the sensitivity of electrical conductance to strain. Electronic transport in functionalised CNTs will be studied using the linear-scaling first-principles electronic structure code ONETEP (www.onetep.org). Functionalisation itself affects the electrical response of CNTs by introducing defects and further changes result from structural distortions induced by strain in the surrounding matrix. The bonding with the matrix may also be characterised.
Applications from physical scientists are invited to fill this post of postgraduate "early-stage researcher" funded by "TheLink" (H2020-MSCA-ITN-2014), a Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Training Network. The successful applicant will carry out a three-year programme of research leading to the PhD degree.
The training network is made up of 10 partners, coordinated by the Fraunhofer ICT in Germany. The network will recruit a total of 15 postgraduates for project work lasting for 36 months, three of whom will be based at Imperial College London.
Nanostructured polymers, composites and phase-separated materials are attracting scientific and industrial interest due to the outstanding properties and functionalities that can be achieved. However, in order to exploit their potential an in-depth understanding of the relationship between nano/micro structures and macro-level properties is required. TheLink therefore aims to generate this knowledge along the material development chain from design to production, combining the disciplines of simulation, characterization and processing. The postgraduate researchers recruited by the network will move the development of polymeric nanomaterials towards a knowledge-based, industrially-feasible approach. Three case studies (phase separated polymers, separation membranes, composites for electrical conductivity/self-diagnosis/EMI shielding) will be used to guide research and training and to demonstrate the project developments.
The funding source requires candidates to have not been resident in the UK for more than 12 months in the past three years, to be in the first four years of their research careers and not in possession of a PhD. Candidates are expected to hold (or to be about to receive) a Master's degree (or equivalent) in Physical Natural Sciences, at a level comparable with a UK First Class or Distinction. Knowledge of electronic structure theory and experience of first-principles simulation methods is highly desirable. Candidates must be able to work in an internationally-oriented environment, including fluency in English.
This post will be based at the South Kensington Campus.
