Electrodes for emerging photovoltaics

You will be working in the research group of Dr Ross Hatton on an exciting project developing novel electrodes for the emerging generation of thin film photovoltaic devices (namely, perovskite and organic photovoltaics). The project will span electrode design, fabrication and testing in devices, and so represents an inherently interdisciplinary research training opportunity at the interface between chemistry and materials science.

Dr Hatton is part of the Physical Chemistry Section in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Warwick and his research group is housed in the newly built £24M Materials and Analytical Sciences building. For further information about the Hatton group see: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/chemistry/research/hatton/

Enquiries, which should include a CV with the names of two referees, should be made to Dr Ross Hatton ([Email Address Removed]).
