In the proposed project, hybrid perovskite-based thin films will be investigated for their ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. The ferroelectric properties will be explored using the P-E loop (polarisation-electric field) and piezo-force microscopy (PFM) method.
Through this project, air-stable, all inorganic halide perovskites will be developed through solution processing methods and capable to harvest both the indoor lighting inside the building from artificial light sources such as white LEDs and fluorescent lamps and also from the outdoor Sun.
Applications for 2022 now open to postgraduate students in their second or third year of study, registered for a PhD within the SCENARIO & SSCP DTPs. Applications close 31 January 2022. Fellowships will start at the earliest in April 2022.
Researchers at the University of Rhode Island are currently recruiting candidates for a funded PhD position working on two mixed-methods projects related to offshore wind development. Interested candidates should apply to the Marine Affairs PhD program at URI, preferably by January 15th 2021.
The post-doctoral researcher will support a community-based participatory research initiative focused on the role of fiscal policy and public services in the challenge of “just transitions” for Native American economies and communities – here the case is the Apsáalooke (Crow) nation in Montana. Screening begins December 16 2021.
