MSE Postdoctoral Position in X-ray and Neutron Characterization of Complex Oxides
Applicants must be US citizens...
The University of Tennessee is pleased to announce an immediate opening for a postdoctoral associate position focused on the X-ray and neutron scattering investigation of solid oxide ionic conductors and refractory oxide materials. This position resides in the University of Tennessee (UT) Institute for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing (IAMM) and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, supervised by Prof. Katharine Page. The successful candidate will investigate relationships between material performance/stability and compositional complexity, sample morphology, and internal defects/disorder. The candidate will use on-campus facilities at IAMM and X-ray and neutron user facilities to characterize s patial variations in morphology/microstructure, chemical short-range order, and other defects/disorder correlations across material length scales. Metal-ceramic composite structures and interfaces may also be explored. The position will allow the postdoctoral scientist to develop expertise, broaden experience and to interact with a diverse set of scientists at UT and with several collaborating institutions/industrial partners. The initial appointment is a temporary full-time assignment of 12-24 months. The applicant must be a US citizen and have a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering, Chemistry, Physics or a related field. The ideal candidate will have experience in oxide and/or metal-ceramic composite microstructures, experience with laboratory-based characterization (diffraction, microscopy, and physical property measurements), expertise and interest in neutron and synchrotron methods for advanced structural characterization (both experiments and data analysis), and a demonstrated track record in publishing. Experience and interest in Density Functional Theory exploration of complex oxides will be favorably considered. Excellent written and oral communication skills are required. The candidate must be available for occasional travel to national user facilities and partner organizations.
Interested candidates should provide a cover letter summarizing their qualifications and a curriculum vitae that includes contact information for three references. Questions and application materials should be directed to Professor Page ( kpage10@utk.edu ). Application materials should be received before March 10, 2023 for full consideration.
