Highlights:
1. A postdoctoral position in the area of synthesis and chemical functionalization of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots) is available in the Department of Chemistry at Iowa State University.
2. Expected start date is January 2010.
3. The ideal candidate is a highly motivated and dynamic individual that works independently and has the ability to mentor graduate and undergraduate students.
4. Minimum required qualifications are:
(1) A PhD in organic, polymer, or inorganic chemistry, or a related field, with a heavy emphasis in synthesis,
(2) proven expertise in the preparation of colloidal nanoparticles, polymers, and/or small molecules (organic, organometallic, and/or inorganic), specially using inert atmosphere (Schlenk) and dry box techniques, and
(3) good working knowledge of characterization techniques such as NMR, FT-IR, UV-Vis, PL & PLE, XRD, TEM, SEM, GC-MS, GPC, DLS and/or DSC.
5. Interested persons should submit a resume and a letter of application electronically to Dr. Javier Vela at vela@iastate.edu .
6. Please do NOT mail paper applications.
7. Selected candidates will be asked to forward letters of reference. Screening of applications will continue until the position is filled.
8. Position is contingent on the availability of funds, as well as on attainment of appropriate visa (if applicable).
9. Benefits are provided through Iowa State University. Iowa State University is a highly ranked, research-intensive university located in Ames, Iowa. Ames (pop. 52,000) is located along interstate I-35, about 33 miles (53 km) north of the state capital of Des Moines.
10. The area offers several entertainment opportunities including a variety of performing arts and sporting events.
