Post-Doctoral Researcher (level 1)

Maynooth University is committed to a strategy in which the primary University goals of excellent research and scholarship and outstanding education are interlinked and equally valued.

We are seeking to recruit a postdoctoral researcher to work on an SEAI-funded research project on the photoelectrochemical generation of green hydrogen, combining solar cell materials with electrochemistry. The successful candidate will join the Electro-Materials, Environmental and Renewable Energy research group in the Department of Chemistry and will work on the synthesis and design of perovskite-based materials, assessing their potential for the photoelectrochemical reduction of water into hydrogen. This project is a collaboration with Chemical Engineering at University College Dublin (UCD), and the successful candidate will work closely with the research team at UCD.
