POSTDOC POSITION IN ADVANCED COATING OF LFP MATERIALS – IN COLLABORATION WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO, CANADA 12772

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to explore advanced coating techniques for Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) materials. This role focuses on developing cutting-edge solutions to enhance the performance of LFP batteries, with a particular emphasis on advanced material coating strategies.

The project addresses the growing need to improve the surface properties and stability of LFP materials, especially under high-performance applications. Traditional methods for coating and stabilizing LFP cathodes often face limitations in durability and electrochemical efficiency. This research aims to overcome these challenges by applying innovative coating techniques using polymer- and nanomaterial-based coatings. These advanced coatings will enhance not only the chemical and thermal stability of the LFP materials but also improve their electrochemical performance, surface area, and selective permeability.

The successful candidate will investigate methods to coating active materials, such as nanostructured coatings, to protect the LFP particles while optimizing their performance in high-energy-density applications. The coated LFP materials should exhibit superior mechanical and chemical resilience, ensuring that the coatings maintain their structural integrity during industrial-scale operations.

Key research areas include:

Developing novel polymer- or nanomaterial-based shells to coat the LFP particles

Enhancing the surface properties of the coatings to selectively permit ion diffusion, increasing the electrochemical performance while reducing unwanted reactions.

Ensuring that the coated LFP materials remain stable under high-voltage and cycling conditions typical in energy storage applications.

Focusing on scaling these advanced materials for industrial applications, from traditional battery technologies to more innovative energy storage systems.

This position will contribute to the next generation of LFP-based batteries, improving their safety, efficiency, and overall performance for sustainable energy storage solutions.

Job Description :

The successful candidate will carry out duties to the highest standard and will:


	Undertake original research of international excellence.

Mohammed VI Polytechnic University

Finland

Aalto University is where science and art meet technology and business. We shape a sustainable future by making research breakthroughs in and across our disciplines, sparking the game changers of tomorrow and creating novel solutions to major global challenges. Our community is made up of 13 000 students, 400 professors and close to 4 500 other faculty and staff working on our dynamic campus in Espoo, Greater Helsinki, Finland. Diversity is part of who we are, and we actively work to ensure our community’s diversity and inclusiveness. This is why we warmly encourage qualified candidates from all backgrounds to join our community. 

The School of Electrical Engineering is one of the six schools of Aalto University. Our portfolio covers fields from natural sciences to engineering and information sciences. In parallel with basic research, we develop ideas and technologies further into innovations and services. We are experts in systems science; we develop integrated solutions from care of the elderly to space robotics. The School is an international unit with close to 60 professors and 2 000 full-time students, including over 200 doctoral students.

The Designer Materials and Devices Group at the Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering is looking for a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to work on Time-Varying Electromagnetic Systems, related to a large international project "Self-Programmable Metasurface Networks for Wireless Communications and IoT".

Scientific context

A key challenge for 6G, which is expected to operate at sub-THz frequencies, is overcoming high signal attenuation caused by the atmosphere and urban materials like concrete. To address this, 6G will rely on reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (metasurfaces), passive structures that can optimize wireless environments by directing electromagnetic waves without costly active components. Incorporating active control elements into metasurfaces introduces time as a fourth design dimension, overcoming the limitations of passivity, linearity, and reciprocity. This addition enables advanced functionalities like wave mixing, parametric processes, frequency conversion and amplification, beam steering across momentum and frequency domains, and reciprocity breaking. These innovations will significantly enhance the performance and flexibility of 6G communication systems, allowing for more efficient and adaptable signal management.

Your role and goals

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will contribute to pioneering research in time-varying systems, including metasurfaces and photonic time crystals.
