During the post-doctoral fellow, the scientist will have to develop a synthetic pathway to get nanoparticles, corresponding to the specificities of electrically conductive inks field (size, purity, etc). The nanoparticles will then be incorporated into an ink that will be used for the metallization of silicon cells. Targeting the integration of the step in a global recycling process, the researcher will have to optimize the nanoparticles synthesis starting from a template, then work with material coming from real end of life PV panels.
