The project involves the development of ceramic membranes that conduct carbonate ions, including synthesis, physicochemical characterization, microstructural characterization, shaping, conventional sintering and electric-field-assisted sintering (flash sintering), as well as the determination of electrochemical and ionic permeability properties. The goal is to optimize inorganic carbonate-ion-conducting composites with adequate permeability for application in devices for CO\u2082 separation\/capture.<\/p>\n<p>The position is open to both Brazilian and international candidates. The FAPESP Postdoctoral Fellowship (<a href=\"https:\/\/fapesp.br\/bolsas\/pd\">https:\/\/fapesp.br\/bolsas\/pd<\/a>) provides a monthly stipend of R$ 12,570.00 and a Technical Reserve equivalent to 10% of the annual fellowship amount.<\/p>\n<p>The selected candidate will carry out research at IPEN laboratories under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Reginaldo Muccillo. Applicants must hold a PhD (obtained within the past 7 years, in Brazil or abroad) in Materials Science, Materials Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, or related fields. Required experience includes synthesis of inorganic compounds, microstructural characterization (X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy), and electrical characterization (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of solids). Proficiency in English (reading and writing) is also required.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants must send the following documents by e-mail to <strong>muccillo@usp.br<\/strong> no later than <strong>May15, 2026<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>FAPESP Curriculum Summary (<a href=\"https:\/\/fapesp.br\/5254\/roteiro-para-elaboracao-da-sumula-curricular\">guidelines for preparation<\/a>),<\/li>\n<li>a statement (max. 2 pages) describing experience in the areas listed above,<\/li>\n<li>two recommendation letters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Postdoctoral Fellowship in Solid-State Electrochemistry Field of Knowledge: Materials Science FAPESP Grant Number: 2023\/14931-8 Project Title: Advanced Electrochemical Devices for Molecular Conversion and Energy Production Principal Investigator: F\u00e1bio Coral Fonseca Research Area: Solid-State Electrochemistry Number of Positions: 1 Supervisor: Dr. Reginaldo Muccillo Institution: Center of Materials Science and Technology, Energy and Nuclear Research Institute (CCTM-IPEN) [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11662"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11665,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions\/11665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11662"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sbpmat.org.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
