The European Commission has funded three HORIZON projects aiming at the estimation of national greenhouse gas emissions through the use of atmospheric observations and inverse modelling. The project PARIS (https://horizoneurope-paris.eu/), which brings together a high-level consortium of 17 European partner organizations under the lead of the University of Utrecht, focuses on the interface between bottom-up and top-down approaches and aims to strengthen the collaboration between atmospheric scientists and national inventory teams for the evaluation and development of national inventories. As a key partner of PARIS contributing to the development of national scale solutions, we are looking for a highly motivated postdoc experienced in atmospheric transport and inverse modelling. Your tasks Develop and apply methods for European scale emission estimation using inverse modelling approaches for non-CO2 greenhouse gases (methane, nitrous oxides and fluorinated compounds). Extend inverse modelling tools for the use with co-emitted tracers like ethane and GHG isotopologues. Improve interchangeability of inverse modelling tools between project partners and engage with national inventory teams. Strengthen traceability and reproduceability of model results by the development of a plugin for the workflow manager AiIDA. Participate in regular project meetings, manage Empa's tasks and deliverables in the PARIS project.

Together with our team of experienced scientists and industry partners, you will synthetize polymers from biorefinery building blocks and prepare composites and fibers for the textile industry. This project brings together a new generation of green and sustainable fillers and polymers for the preparation of leather alternatives with higher durability and mechanical properties than the commercially available synthetic leathers. The project is financed by Innosuisse and brings together Empa, a start-up and a large Swiss Industrial textile company. Combining fundamental and applied science, the goal is to develop high functional and commercially relevant material solutions. We envisage that the generated knowledge will advance the use of sustainable resources for the production of leather alternatives. We also foresee that the developments will demonstrate the potential to reduce carbon emission and water consumption compared to "natural leather" production and contribute to substitute the fossil-based polymer composites with bio-based sustainable alternatives.Your challengesSynthetize novel polymers using natural building blocks from biorefinery industries.Prepare composites and fibers using biomass resources.Evaluate novel biopolymer cellulose-based composites.Develop and optimize material processing methods (e.g. extrusion, thermoforming and coating) for alternative leather applications.Characterize and validate developed formulations and materials in terms of physical, mechanical and thermal properties.Publish results in the form of patents or scientific journal articles, present results at project meetings and at international conferences.

The project: The development of many next-generation technologies requires thin films and coatings, which exhibit more than one functionality. In this research project, we are targeting the development of novel ceramic thin film materials that are capable of this feat. Such materials may combine favorable mechanical properties, such as high hardness or scratch-resistance, with other functionalities. These can range from high transparency and electrical conductivity to their chemical stability or even their piezoelectric response. Applications of such coatings range from simple optical components such as lenses to more complex devices such as MEMS or displays. The materials of interest for this study mainly include ternary and quaternary nitrides and oxynitrides. Simultaneously optimizing multiple functional properties in these materials is a complex challenge with many variables. To accelerate this process you will employ high-throughput combinatorial materials science techniques. The project is part of a larger effort in our laboratory to develop tools and methods to accelerate the development of novel functional thin films. As part of our Accelerated Materials Development team, you will use state-of-the-art physical vapor deposition processes, such as high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) in combination with automated in-depth materials characterization and data analysis. The goal is to rapidly investigate the synthesis-structure-property relationships in complex synthesis phase spaces.

The research project focuses on the development of electrolytes and electrode materials for next-generation flow batteries. The energy density of such batteries is typically quite low and directly linked to active material solubility. Concentrated electrolytes, however, invoke various challenges that prevent practical implementation. In this project we will explore mediated redox reactions, or redox targeting, to decouple energy density from solubility. Your task is to identify redox mediators that will be dissolved in the electrolyte, and solid electrode materials that will be deposited in the electrolyte storage tanks. You will develop methods to improve the electrode-electrolyte compatibility via solvent effects and coatings, developing a firm understanding of mediated redox reactions and how experimental parameters and material formulations affect charge transfer at the liquid-solid interface. Compositions and morphologies of electrode pellets will be explored to optimize mass transport, ensuring that all the electrode material is efficiently charged and discharged during battery operation. Promising material combinations will be studied in lab-scale flow batteries, benefitting from the extensive characterization capabilities available at Empa. Our labs are fully equipped for battery fabrication and characterization. State-of-the-art facilities include synthesis labs with fume hoods, gloveboxes, various synthesis reactors and furnaces, sputtering and evaporation facilities, X-ray diffractometers, UV-Vis, Raman and FTIR spectrometers, surface area and particle size analyzer, electrochemical characterization including impedance spectroscopy, mass spectrometers, gas and liquid chromatographers, thermogravimetric analyzer, various equipment for the physicochemical characterization of electrolytes, etc. Access to advanced electron microscopy and X-ray facilities is also available.
