**Job Description**
The selected postdoctoral researcher will engage in advanced research on the design, synthesis, and characterization of liquid and glass MOFs and their hybrid materials. The primary objective is to explore the fundamental structure-property relationships that govern MOF vitrification and liquid-phase behavior, and to develop new MOF-based materials with functional applications in energy, gas separation, or optics. The position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a rapidly growing interdisciplinary field bridging coordination chemistry and glass science through a collaborative international framework.
**Skills & Abilities**
• Strong background in inorganic chemistry, coordination chemistry, or materials science, particularly with experience in metal-organic frameworks or related porous materials
• Hands-on experience with material synthesis and thermal characterization techniques, such as solvothermal synthesis, TGA/DSC, variable-temperature PXRD, and spectroscopic methods (e.g., FTIR, NMR, Raman)
• Familiarity with glass and amorphous materials science, including interest in understanding thermodynamic and structural aspects of non-crystalline phases (strong advantage)
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret complex experimental data and draw meaningful scientific conclusions
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with a proven ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary and international research environments
• A track record of scientific publication in peer-reviewed journals, and a proactive attitude toward dissemination of research outcomes
**Qualifications**
Required Degree(s) in:
• PhD level (e.g., Inorganic Chemistry, Coordination Chemistry, Materials Science)
