About this role
PhD Position in Physical Chemistry | Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of Multichromophoric Systems Nieuw Are you passionate about photophysics, spectroscopy, and molecular science? The University of Amsterdam is offering an exciting PhD position within the NANOCONFINER project, where you will use cutting-edge time-resolved spectroscopy to investigate excited-state processes in multichromophoric systems. Join an internationally renowned research team and contribute to the development of next-generation materials for energy conversion and light-driven technologies. PhD Position in Physical Chemistry: Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of Multichromophoric Systems Faculty of Science - WO / Master - 38 hours - Location: Amsterdam - min. €3.059 - max. €3.881 - Closes on 15-09-2026 Join our team! Join us in pushing the frontiers of molecular photophysics and gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques. Apply today and help reveal the principles that govern energy conversion at the molecular scale. Using advanced spectroscopic techniques, you will investigate charge separation, charge transport, and energy-transfer dynamics in multichromophoric molecular systems, generating the fundamental knowledge needed to design the next generation of organic materials for energy conversion and light-driven technologies. This is what you are going to do You will investigate excited-state processes using state-of-the-art spectroscopic methods, such as: - Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy (UV-Vis, IR) - Time-resolved luminescene (TCSPC, streak camera) - Steady-state optical spectroscopy and photophysical characterization You will analyze your data and discuss them in writing, or at group meetings and conferences. This is what we ask of you We seek talented and enthusiastic candidates who have recently completed, or are close to completing, a Master's degree in physical chemistry, chemical physics, or a closely related field.
