Postdoctoral Position - University of Arizona, Department of Chemistry
Femtosecond Photoelectron Imaging Spectroscopy of Negative Ions
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the laboratory of
Andrei 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 combines the advantages of
negative-ion photoelectron spectroscopy, femtosecond pump-probe
techniques, and the imaging detection of photoelectrons. The project is
in a development stage and the successful candidate will be well
positioned to enjoy the benefits of being one of the pioneers in an
exciting field.
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.
The position is available starting in July or August 2000, although a
later starting date could be negotiated. 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, world-class hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking, and even
skiing.
Interested candidates should send a curriculum vita, a full list of
publications, a brief summary of previous research experience, and the
names and full contact information of three qualified references willing
to write letters of recommendation 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).
