Postdoctoral Fellow in Zero-Excess Lithium Anode Sulfide-Based All-Solid-State Batteries

Overview

The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) is the largest research institute for natural and engineering sciences within Switzerland. We carry out cutting‑edge research in future technologies, energy and climate, health innovation, and fundamental natural sciences. Our work focuses on sustainable solutions to major challenges in society, science, and the economy. PSI is dedicated to training future generations, with about one quarter of its staff being post‑docs, post‑graduates, or apprentices. The institute employs 2,300 people.

Your tasks

• Develop and optimize zero‑excess (anode‑free) lithium metal sulfide‑based all‑solid‑state batteries (ASSBs) for high‑energy‑density and safe applications.
• Design and investigate current collector and interface engineering strategies, including thin‑film surface modifications and protective interlayers to improve lithium plating/stripping reversibility.
• Develop and optimize wet‑slurry proces...
