Research Associate required as part of an international project on thin film photovoltaic devices at the University of Luxembourg within the Laboratory for Energy Materials

The University of Luxembourg is a multilingual, international research university.

There is an opening for a Research Associate (Post doc) to research thin film semi-transparent photovoltaic mini-modules as part of an international team.

Postdoc Candidate in the field of photovoltaics (M/F)

• Ref. 50013868
• Fixed-term contract 3 years
• Full-time (40 hrs/week)
• Employee status

The post doc will be responsible for semi-transparent mini module design, simulation, and leading the fabrication, as well as device characterization.
