Postdoctoral Position - University of Arizona, Department of Chemistry
Femtosecond Photoelectron Imaging Spectroscopy of Negative Ions and Ionic
Clusters
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the laboratory of
Prof. A. Sanov at the University Arizona. The position is in the area of
femtosecond photoelectron imaging spectroscopy of negative ions and ionic
clusters. The research focuses on the electronic structure and dynamics
of photoinitiated chemical reactions, emphasizing the evolving electronic
wave functions. The experimental approach is based on a unique
combination of two state-of-the-art techniques: photoelectron imaging and
femtosecond photoelectron spectroscopy of negative ions. This is a new
project in a newly established laboratory. It is currently in the
development stage and the successful candidate will be well positioned to
become one of the pioneers in the exciting field of research.

I am looking for a creative experimentalist who has had experience in some
of the following: gas phase reaction dynamics; laser spectroscopy;
photoelectron or photofragment spectroscopy; photoelectron or
photofragment imaging; mass-spectrometry; femtosecond lasers; high vacuum
systems; electronics.
The position is available starting in July or August 2000, although a
later starting date is also possible. The initial appointment will be for
one year with the expectation of extensions contingent upon reasonable
progress and funding availability. The compensation package will be
competitive, commensurate with qualifications. Tucson, Arizona is a great
yet inexpensive place to live, with excellent climate and breathtaking
scenery.
Interested candidates should submit curriculum vitae, a full list of
publications, a brief summary of previous research experience, and have at
least two letters of recommendation from qualified references sent
directly to Prof. Andrei Sanov, Department of Chemistry, University of
Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721-0041, U.S.A. Alternatively, the application
materials can be sent by e-mail ([log in to unmask]) or fax
(520-621-8407).
