Postdoctoral position in the optical spectroscopies group at the University
of Tennessee

The optical spectroscopies group at the University of Tennessee anticipates
an opening for a postdoctoral researcher starting in late 2012/early 2013.
Our program features a series of unique
spectrometers and access to a wide array of chemical and physical tuning
techniques: www.chem.utk.edu/~musfeldt/. Current research areas include: (i)
optical properties of polar oxides, (ii) optical properties of molecule-
based materials, and (iii) charge and bonding studies of model nanoscale
materials. The interested candidate will lead new initiatives on the
spectroscopy of 5d materials, hard magnets, and topological insulators in
collaboration with experimental and theory teams in our recently funded
DMREF program with Rutgers Univeristy.
Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. in physics, chemistry, or materials
science. Experience in instrument design/development is desirable. The
ability to collaborate with creative synthetic chemists, theorists, and
device teams is essential. To apply, please send your curriculum vitae, a
cover letter describing your experience, and the names and contact
information of three references to
Professor Jan Musfeldt, Department of Chemistry, University of Tennessee,
Knoxville, TN 37996 USA. Phone: 865 974-3392 and e-mail: musfeldt@utk.edu.
