Job Summary

This four-year doctoral project invites a motivated individual to develop and deploy an AI-driven approach for the inverse design of novel lead-free perovskite materials for photovoltaic applications. The successful candidate will integrate high-performance computational studies with experimental high-throughput platforms, create a data management system for inter-institute collaboration, and devise an invertible predictive modeling approach linking semiconductor properties to perovskite composition. This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of AI, materials science, and energy technology within one of Europe's largest research centers, benefiting from state-of-the-art infrastructure and interdisciplinary supervision.
