POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN REACTION DYNAMICS ON SURFACES
AT BROOKHAVEN NATIONAL LABORATORY, USA
A postdoctoral position is available in chemical dynamics involving thermal
and photo-induced reactions of adsorbates on metal and metal-oxide surfaces.
State-resolved probes of the desorbed products are used to study the charge
and energy transfer processes induced by photoexcitation at the
adsorbate-metal
interface and the resulting reaction dynamics leading to desorption. Current
and future projects include fundamental studies of photodesorption, UV and
IR-induced recombination and association reactions, surface reaction
kinetics
and molecular beam scattering. This work is part of a larger
interdisciplinary
surface chemistry effort at BNL which includes access to spectroscopy and
structural beam lines at the National Synchrotron Light Source.
The successful candidate should have a strong background in laser-based
chemical dynamics, surface (photo)chemistry or surface scattering.
Experience
with REMPI techniques, time-of-flight mass spectrometry or ion-imaging is
also
desirable. Brookhaven National Laboratory is an equal opportunity employer,
and US citizenship is not required.
Applicants should send a CV and three letters of recommendation to:
