[Wien] Postdoctoral opening.

[Laurence Marks]

Postdoctoral position at Northwestern University
DFT and Electron Microscopy

A postdoctoral position is available at Northwestern University
for someone with expertise in both DFT (Wien2k, Vasp, PWSCF) and
transmission electron microscopy. The research will be in a number
of different areas including charge density measurements at both
surfaces and for bulk materials; structure and energies of surface
reconstructions; oxides for use either as catalysts or in solid
oxide fuel cells. The applicant must hold a recent Ph.D. in physics,
chemistry, or materials science. Further requirements for this position
are: (1) A good knowledge of electronic structure theory. (2) Experience
with first-principles calculations such as Density Functional Theory. (3)
Extensive hands-on experience with transmission electron microscopy and
diffraction (4) Ability to communicate effectively with coworkers and
collaborators. (5) Demonstrated ability to write high-quality manuscripts
suitable for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
