E-2411 PHD CANDIDATE ON DYNAMIC CONSEQUENTIAL LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT OF BIOBASED SYSTEMS

Description

Are you passionate about research? So are we! Come and join us

Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: https://www.list.lu/

Discover our Environmental Research and Innovation department: ERIN Department

How will you contribute?

You will join the Environmental Sustainability Assessment and Circularity (SUSTAIN) Unit of ERIN. SUSTAIN develops knowledge, transferable (software) technologies, practical methods and outreach activities for the simulation and comprehensive sustainability assessment of societal systems. Its final purpose is to foster sustainable eco-innovation, through products and technologies, as well as support sustainability-oriented policy implementation and behavioural change to promote decarbonisation transitions.

Within the SUSTAIN Unit, you will be incorporated in the Life Cycle Sustainability Analysis (LCSA) research group. The group consists of ca. 25 researchers with a broad range of expertise and diverse cultural backgrounds, and united by the common purpose of supporting the sustainability transition. The group develops sustainability metrics and indicators, to assess the environmental and social impacts of products, technologies, territories and policies, for both industrial organisations and policy makers.

The triple planetary crisis (climate change, pollution & biodiversity loss) is spurring us to consider and evaluate biobased systems and products. For this PhD position, the focus is on certain biofuel and food alternatives. These still have considerable impacts on the environment and their respective environmental impacts should be better estimated, to guide decision-making. Hereto life cycle methods shall be improved and applied. More precisely, in this PhD project, the first goal is to further develop life cycle methods with regard to dynamic modelling over time of their inventories and impact, e.g. CO2 flows are spread over time for biobased systems, and finetune consequential modelling, in particular land use modelling and competition between food and fuel for these. The second overall aim of your PhD is to apply the developed methodologies to two cases, one on a novel biofuel, and one on legumes, taking into account as well their competition for land. In practice, during the course of your PhD, you will be working on various projects funded in the framework of Horizon Europe.

For this position, we are thus looking for a motivated PhD student, especially with good organizational skills given the involvement in several projects.

E-2410 – PHD CANDIDATE ON ABSOLUTE SUSTAINABILITY ASSESS. FOR SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE BY DESIGN

Description

Are you passionate about research? So are we! Come and join us

Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: https://www.list.lu/

Discover our Environmental Research and Innovation department: ERIN Department

How will you contribute?

The “Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD)” framework aims at steering the development of new materials and substances based on safety and sustainability assessment criteria. Life Cycle Assessment methods are recommended for sustainability evaluation. Methods adopting an Absolute Sustainability rationale integrating the planetary boundaries are emerging. However, consensus is lacking on the definition of absolute environmental sustainability criteria, uncertainties are affecting the results and thus potentially the definition of criteria (especially at low technological readiness level – TRL).

The PhD candidate will define relevant LCA criteria, depending on the application sector and the TRL scale, which are aligned with the planetary boundaries. Criteria will be further tested in the framework of three Horizon Europe projects (ZeroF, SuperBark and TransZeroWaste), specifically for the sectors: steel, textile, packaging and wood products.

In this context, Network Digital Twin (NDT) is an emerging concept to create real-time digital replicas of existing network elements, their topology, and services. It can offer a secure sandbox for closed-loop network automation and facilitate the optimal planning, management, and control of network resources. However, significant efforts are still needed to fully realise this concept and integrate it seamlessly into practical applications.

Your mission will be to explore this topic and contribute to the design, implementation, and validation of a native AI reference architecture for 6G systems that incorporates NDT as a central mechanism for end-to-end, real-time optimisation, management and control of highly dynamic and complex network scenarios.

Specifically, the work will take place in the context of a European project, and will include, but not be limited to:

Conducting research on 6G NDT, ensuring dissemination and promotion of the undertaken activities via publications, patents, prototypes, and technical reports. This includes proposing NDT-based models for optimising network planning, management and control applications.
Contributing to the development of demonstrators that prove the potential of the NDT concept in the context of 6G (relying on simulation and/or emulation).
Driving LIST's technical contribution to key project tasks and representing us in collaborative discussions.

M-2397 POSTDOC LEAD FREE THIN FILMS FOR TRANSPARENT HAPTIC DEVICES

Description

12 months contract | Belvaux

Are you passionate about research? So are we! Come and join us

The Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) is a Research and Technology Organization (RTO) active in the fields of materials, environment, and IT. By transforming scientific knowledge into technologies, smart data and tools, LIST empowers citizens in their choices, public authorities in their decisions and businesses in their strategies.

How will you contribute?

Piezoelectric materials can translate mechanical strain in electric signal or induce the movement of a device by applying a voltage. They are extremely useful in microsystems industry as thin films and spread rapidly on all mobile devices (microphone, loudspeakers, acoustic filters, haptic devices). The best piezoelectric thin films contain lead and finding a lead-free alternative has been a long-lasting quest for more than 20 years. Potassium Sodium Niobate (KNN)-based films have attracted attention thanks to excellent piezoelectric properties, as shown by sputtering (Shibata et al., Applied Physics Express, 2008) and more recently by Pulsed Lased Deposition technique (Huajun Liu et al., Science 2020).

Several groups investigated Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) of KNN but have not reached properties as competitive as the ones from lead-based films (Nakashima et al. J. Appl. Phys. 2007, Kupec et al. J. Am. Ceram. Soc. 2012, Kovacova et al. J. Appl. Phys. 2021).Kovacova et al. Chem. Eur. J. 2020, Kovacova et al. JAP 2021).

At LIST, we have been working on piezoelectric films by CSD method since 2014, from the material synthesis up to the fabrication of actual devices, such as haptic actuators (Glinsek et al., Adv. Funct. Mat. 2020). CSD is interesting because it is cost-effective and a readily scalable method. It also enables rapid composition modifications in comparison with sputtering or PLD.

Our recent developments on KNN CSD films have shown that these films can exhibit piezoelectric properties nearly as good as lead-based materials such as lead titanate zirconate (PZT) when they are deposited on silicon substrates. Consequently, in our endeavor to investigate transparent piezoelectric films, we want to study such KNN films on glass substrates combined with transparent electrodes also developed in the group.

In this project, KNN films will be fabricated by Chemical Solution Deposition method on glass substrates. Electrical characterization including dielectric, impedance spectroscopy, ferroelectric and piezoelectric characterizations will be performed. A special focus will be performed on field-assisted Raman spectrometry together with the University of Luxembourg[AB1] , thanks to the transparency of KNN stacks.

In terms of device, the group has an extensive experience on haptic devices (see e.g. Glinsek at al., Inkjet‐Printed Piezoelectric Thin Films for Transparent Haptics, Advanced Materials Technologies 7 (8), 2200147 (2022)). Therefore, the final goal of this postdoc is to integrate these films in a functional transparent haptic device, the first ever made with transparent lead free materials.

Is Your profile described below? Are you our future colleague? Apply now!

Applicants with a PhD degree should have a background in materials science chemistry, ideally on the development of piezoelectric films and with an experience of haptic devices.
A strong teamwork spirit is a must.
English is a must.

M-2328 PHD CANDIDATE - DEVELOPMENT OF LASER BASED, LIQUID FLOW DIAGNOSTICS

Description

48 months contract | Belvaux

Are you passionate about research? So are we! Come and join us

Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: https://www.list.lu/

Discover our Materials department: https://www.list.lu/en/materials/

How will you contribute?

The Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) is seeking to recruit a PhD student to work on the development of advanced laser-based diagnostics for the experimental characterization of liquid flows.

This project is funded with an FNR AFR award and, in collaboration with the Mechanical Engineering Department at the National University of Singapore (NUS), intends to combine two competencies at the two institutions, namely laser analytics/diagnostics/instrumentation and liquid flow instrumentation (e.g., water tunnels). An important aspect of this PhD program is that approximately 40% of the experimental work will be conducted at the research facilities at NUS – hence travel flexibility is necessary.

As a PhD student, you will contribute to this project through the development of novel concepts for liquid flow – laser interaction and demonstrate its use for the experimental characterization of these flows in real life applications, such as those encountered in a water tunnel.

These ground-breaking studies will form the basis for various diagnostics in e.g. the water flow around/under a vessel, leading towards e.g. more efficient transport over liquid bodies, ultimately resulting in CO₂, fuel and cost reduction for these activities. The project involves establishing the theoretical background of the interaction principles through calculations and simulations, the detailed elaboration of the parameters space needed for experimental studies, as well as the hardware design of a novel laser apparatus to be interfaced with liquid flows.

In the NUS water tunnels, the instrumentation to be developed at LIST will be utilized to characterize the liquid flows near bodies, and benchmarked against more traditional measurement approaches, thus demonstrating the usefulness of the developed technique. You will actively contribute to the design, development, demonstration of the required instrumentation, as well as to the analysis of the scientific results to be obtained.

One of the main challenges of the project will be to prove experimentally the benefits of laser diagnostics for liquid flow characterization, as well as integrating the concept into existing water tunnels at NUS.

You will have to assess the best technological configuration and the related theoretical and experimental findings to push the intended concept towards higher technology readiness levels.

You will work closely with highly skilled scientists and engineers in the dynamic environments present at both the AINA group within LIST’s Materials Research & Technology Department, as well as the Thermofluids Division at NUS.

You will acquire highly valued skills in the applications of advanced laser diagnostic techniques as well as working with tunnel facilities. You will take a main role in the development of the techniques and instruments mentioned above.

You will coordinate the local research efforts together with input from international project partners. In consultation with the project leader, you will design and perform relevant experiments, analyze and interpret the results, write scientific articles and disseminate the results in international conferences.

Is Your profile described below? Are you our future colleague? Apply now!

You hold a Master’s degree in Physics, Electronics or Mechanical Engineering, combined with a taste for experiments.
Additionally, you have a pronounced taste for mechanical and electronic DIY which is a strong asset for this position. You’re able to manage and use several tools at the same time.
A good knowledge of LABVIEW and Python/Matlab programming as well as demonstrated expertise with laser instrumentation are strong assets for this position.
On top of this, you’re a strong team worker.
You have an advanced level in English (both written and oral).
