We plan to develop mechanochemical processes as an emerging tool for the preparation of highly advanced multicomponent MHP inks. We will also focus on the development of controlled growth of MHP materials with various morphologies including single crystals, nanowires and unprecedented nanotubes/microtubes. These unique nanostructured perovskite materials may open new venue in physico-chemistry of perovskites and optoelectronic devices.

Student will be involved in realization of the following research tasks:

• fabrication of high quality ZnO nanomaterials prospective for light harvesting devices.
• fabrication of metal halide perovskite- and ZnO-based thin layers.
• characterization of physicochemical properties of the resulting nanostructured materials.
• Scientific initiative and contribution through regular reporting and publishing, as well as presenting at group meetings and conferences for young investigators.

• Participation in high impact and timely research.
• Access to unique technology and modern research laboratories.
• Opportunity to work in a team of dedicated researchers and technologists.
• Opportunity to advance scientific knowledge and gain hands-on experience at the border between theory and experiment.
• Participation in international conferences.

• Completed 3rd year of studies in chemistry.
• Experience in laboratory work in the field of inorganic. organic and coordination chemistry.
• Experience with the use of a Schlenk line and  manipulation involving air-sensitive compounds.
• Basic knowledge in characterization methods of organic-inorganic functional materials.
• Additional skills are welcome:

- experience in describing the structure–property–function relationship in nanomaterials
