A postdoctoral position is available in a surface science group
of Prof. Andrew V. Teplyakov, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University
of Delaware.
A successful candidate will be involved in studies of formation
and chemistry of surfaces of complex materials: metal-semiconductor and bimetallic
alloys. The studies will involve application of AES, FTIR, LEED, thermal
desorption, and X-ray based techniques, with emphasis on a vibrational spectroscopy.
Applicants must have good research and communication skills, collaboration with
other groups, industrial partners, and Brookhaven National Laboratory (Upton,
NY) is expected.
A Ph. D. in a related field is a must. Strong background
in UHV and vibrational spectroscopy is a plus. One year appointment is extendible
upon mutual agreement, salary commensurate with experience.
Cover letter, cv, a copy of one representative publication,
and three letters of recommendation should be sent to Prof. Andrew V. Teplyakov,
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, 170 Brown Lab, University of Delaware,
Newark, DE 19716.
University of Delaware is an equal opportunity/affirmative
action employer.

A postdoctoral position will be available in a general area
of chemical properties and processing of surface materials. The research will
focus on the properties of complex materials. Chemistry of formation of bimetallic
surfaces and metal-semiconductor compounds will be studied by a combination
of surface analytical techniques, including AES, LEED, Mass Spectrometry, FTIR,
HREELS, and NEXAFS, with a special emphasis on a photoelectron spectroscopies.
Possible research projects for a successful applicant include:
a) chemistry of hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon fragments on bimetallic single
crystal surfaces; b) chemical and physical properties of surface metal silicides;
c) synthesis and characterization of thin films of transition metal carbides
and nitrides.
The position will be a joined appointment in the research
groups of Prof. Jingguang J. Chen, Department of the Materials Sciences, and
Prof. Andrew V. Teplyakov, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, at the
University of Delaware. The initial appointment will be for one year,
with the option of a second year upon mutual agreement. The position is available
starting November 1998 and will be open until it is filled.
The successful candidate will have access to several multicomponent
UHV systems at the University of Delaware and to the VUV beamline at the Brookhaven
National Laboratory, Upton, NY.
Strong background in surface science is preferred, knowledge
of photoelectron spectroscopy is a must. Applicants should submit a resume and
a copy of one representative publication and have two letters of recommendation
sent to Prof. Jingguang G. Chen, Department of Materials Sciences, University
of Delaware, 304 Spencer Lab, Newark, DE 19716.
Additional inquiries can be arranged via e-mail: andrewt@udel.edu.
University of Delaware is an equal opportunity/affirmative
action employer encouraging applications from women and minority candidates.

The Chemometrics group at the University of Delaware has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral associate. The successful applicant will be involved with research on calibration transfer, robust calibration and variable selection methods and is expected to contribute to group expertise in these and other areas of modern chemometrics. State-of-the-art computational facilities are available to the research. The University is located in a small city (population ~30,000) located within easy driving distance from major metropolitan centers. Prior experience in chemometrics research is essential. Familiarity with Matlab programming, spectroscopic analysis and/or wavelet transforms is helpful. Applications will be taken until the position is filled. Salary is dependent on experience and skills.
