In the new field of the Reference Electrode insertion inside the Li-ion cells, the PostDoc will focus on the pre-conditioning electronics necessary to preserve the internal charge and handle the output signal of the RE. More precisely, a new embedded analog system will be developed, tested and evaluated, completed by large test campaigns on cell prototyped samples, to prove the advantages of Li-ion battery cells with Reference Electrode in terms of robustness, durability and safety. The PostDoc person will plan and organise the work with increasing levels of complexity, especially the electronic design, PCB manufacturing (outsourced) and tests.
He/She will also support the institute by communicating effectively about his/her innovative subject, by writing papers and finding appropriate journals, showing autonomous and active initiative.
The overall result of the 2-year work is the introduction of the Li-ion cell, equipped with Reference Electrode and adapted electronics, into the future products of Li-ion cell industry.
