标题: Chemist Postdoc position [打印本页] 作者: 普渡哥 时间: 2012-1-5 14:00 标题: Chemist Postdoc position The Advanced Energy Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has an opportunity for a Chemist Postdoctoral Fellow to prepare, characterize and optimize electrode materials for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. This position supports the research activities in the Electrochemistry Group in developing the next-generation batteries for use in electric, hybrid- electric, and plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles.
Essential ? Synthesize electrode materials for rechargeable lithium batteries . Grow crystal of various battery electrode materials in a controlled manner . ? Characterize materials using X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric and calorimetric analysis, visible-UV, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, as well as synchrotron-related spectroscopic techniques. ? Investigate and evaluate phase transformations, intercalation phenomena, kinetic and thermodynamic properties of battery electrode materials using electrochemical techniques such as cycling tests, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and spectroelectrochemistry. ? Establish relationships between material properties and electrode performance. ? repare manuscripts and reports. Make presentations at scientific meetings and internal seminars. ? Carry out collaborative research with research associates, post- doctoral fellows, visiting scientists and students.
Qualifications ? A recent Ph.D in chemistry, material sciences, or closely related field. ? Extensive experience in solid state chemistry and knowledge of rechargeable battery chemistry. ? Expertise in crystal growth using conventional methods (molten salt and hydrothermal) and novel synthetic approaches. Extensive knowledge in crystallography and electron microscopy. ? Experience with standard electroanalytical techniques (CV, chronoamperometry etc.) and a range of characterization instruments (XRD, SEM, TEM, TGA, DSC, visible-UV, FTIR, Raman, and synchrotron-related spectroscopic techniques). ? Excellent oral and written communication skills. ? The ability to work as an independent researcher with a high level of scientific judgment and initiative, as well as to collaborate with other researchers in a diverse team.
Notes This is a full-time, one year appointment with the possibility of renewal based upon performance, business needs and continuation of funding.
