Design and Discovery of Functional Inorganic Materials

该项目将结合合成固态化学、高级结构分析（晶体学）和物理性质测量，并有机会在项目期间专注于其中一个或多个方面。您将与计算和实验材料化学家组成的强大团队密切合作，共同发现新材料。该学生将获得EPSRC 860万英镑的加速材料发现计算和实验集成项目资助，并在利物浦大学新开设的材料创新工厂（https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/materials-innovation-factory/）工作。除了获得材料合成和晶体学技术方面的知识和经验外，学生还将培养团队合作和科学交流的技能，因为团队中的计算和实验研究人员密切合作。有广泛的机会使用同步加速器x射线和中子散射设备

The project will combine synthetic solid state chemistry, advanced structural analysis (crystallography) and measurement of physical properties, with the opportunity to focus on one or more of these aspects during the project. You will work closely with a strong team of computational and experimental material chemists working together in the discovery of new materials. The student will be part of the £8.6 million EPSRC Programme Grant in Integration of Computation and Experiment for Accelerated Materials Discovery, and based in the newly-opened Materials Innovation Factory (https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/materials-innovation-factory/) at the University of Liverpool. As well as obtaining knowledge and experience in materials synthesis and crystallographic techniques, the student will develop skills in teamwork and scientific communication as computational and experimental researchers within the team work closely together. There are extensive opportunities to use synchrotron X-ray and neutron scattering facilities
