Vos missions en quelques mots
The thematic area we aspire to support and enhance is the « Microbatteries for wearable applicatiobs ». Amidst the rise of wearable technologies, there's a growing focus on microbattery research and development globally. Smart electronic textiles, in particular, demand features and battery designs beyond the capabilities of traditional technologies. This has opened avenues for innovation and introduced a new facet to the global battery research landscape. Sectors such as Internet of Things (IoT), healthcare (skin patches, medical sensors, medical diagnostic devices), and smart cards could be impacted. Soft microbattery technology is still in its early stages, requiring the integration of expertise from various scientific domains like microelectronics, materials science, electrochemistry, polymer, and inorganic chemistry to address technical challenges. Despite being a relatively new topic, it holds potential implications for the future. A recent development includes a concept for stretchable fiber Li-ion microbatteries and its application to woven powerbanks for smart textiles.
To contribute to the achievement of this very ambitious goal, Mines Saint-Etienne is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher on a fixed-term contract of 12 months (renewable once) in ”Fiber microbatteries for wearable electronics”.
Missions :
The postdoctoral fellow will have to investigate new tracks to optimize the in-line fabrication process and achieve the integration of the micropower sources for practical applications :
· Fabrication of coaxial fiber battery according to existing process in the lab
· Fabrication process optimization to fit in line production
· Microbatteries analysis and optimization
· In relation with our milliner partner, evaluate the fiber suitability with woven process to achieve a textile powerbank.
Profil recherché
Applicants profile :
The candidates will support and strengthen the theme 'Wearables Microbatteries'. They should hold a doctorate, typically in applied material science, specifically in electrochemistry applied to energy storage. Postdoctoral experience, particularly with an international background, will be advantageous. The candidate must demonstrate scientific skills in one or both of the following areas:
· Electrochemistry
· Microbattery technology, including fabrication, analysis, and optimization
Proficiency in electronics and one or more programming languages (Python, etc...) will be highly valued.

Qui sommes-nous ?
The École Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Saint-Étienne (Mines Saint-Etienne), a school of the Institut Mines Télécom (IMT) under the auspices of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, is entrusted with missions encompassing education, research, innovation, industry-oriented knowledge transfer, and the promotion of scientific, technical, and industrial culture.
Mines Saint-Etienne comprises 2,400 engineering students and researchers in training, 400 staff members, a consolidated budget of €46 million, three sites on the campus of Saint-Étienne (Loire) covering approximately 26,000 m², a Aix-Marseille Provence George Charpak Campus in Gardanne (Bouches-du-Rhône) spanning around 20,000 m², six research units, five training and research centers, and a center for scientific, technical, and industrial culture known as La Rotonde.
Mines Saint-Etienne has development projects in Lyon, particularly on the Digital Campus in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, and maintains numerous international collaborations.
Descriptif du service
The Aix-Marseille Provence George Charpak Campus and the Flexible Electronics Department (FEL). The research activities of Flexible Electronics Department are dedicated to the development of technological bricks adapted to the achievement of flexible or/and stretchable electronic components for applications in smart electronics (human machine interface, IoT, smart sensing, bio robotic/mimetic…).
Fabrication of autonomous, thin, flexible and conformable devices spread the research from nanomaterials, energy harvesting and storage to heterogeneous integration on flexible/stretchable substrates. The project will take benefit of microfabrication and characterization facilities made available by the 660m2 clean room, the technological platform “MicroPackS” and research platform “ID-Fab”.
