Postdoctoral: Development of a Reliable Reference Electrode Sensor for Na-Ion Bat H/F

Description de l'offre

Context:

The rapid advancement of Na-ion battery (NIB) technology presents promising opportunities for energy storage, with commercial cells already deployed in electric vehicles. However, key challenges remain in understanding their performance, ageing mechanisms, and safety. To address these issues, innovative sensing technologies are required to monitor and analyze degradation processes in real time.

While reference electrodes have been successfully developed for Li-ion batteries, no reliable, high-performance, and stable solution currently exists for Na-ion systems. This postdoctoral position is part of a cutting-edge project aimed at designing and validating a novel reference electrode sensor specifically for Na-ion batteries, enabling precise in situ and operando characterization.
