Design, synthesize, and modify porous materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), MOF-derived metal oxides, and related nanomaterials for gas sensing and volatile organic compound adsorption.
Fabricate and evaluate gas-sensing devices; assess sensitivity, selectivity, response and recovery, stability, and the effects of temperature and humidity; and analyze the resulting data.
Characterize materials using PXRD, SEM-EDS, XPS, Raman/FTIR spectroscopy, gas adsorption analysis, electrical measurements and related techniques, and interpret structure-property-performance relationships.
Maintain experimental records, equipment, SOPs, and laboratory safety; prepare reports, presentations, manuscripts, patent-related materials, and project documentation; and collaborate with the Principal Investigator, research team, and external partners.
Qualifications
The candidate should have at least a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, and related fields.
Relevant research experience in the synthesis and characterization of porous materials, MOFs, metal oxides, nanomaterials, or related functional materials.
Experience in gas sensing, gas adsorption, sensor fabrication, electrical measurements, or related experimental data analysis is preferred.
Strong laboratory, analytical, problem-solving, and documentation skills, with the ability to plan and conduct experiments independently.
Good written and spoken English, effective teamwork and communication skills, and the ability to meet project milestones.
