Website: http://www.ualberta.ca/~alytkine/ALLSAS/
Competition Deadline: March 31, 2007
The Laboratory for Laser Spectroscopy and Atmospheric Sensing
(http://www.ualberta.ca/~alytkine/ALLSAS/) at the University of
Alberta (http://www.ualberta.ca/), in Edmonton
(http://www.gov.edmonton.ab.ca/), Alberta, Canada, is seeking an
Infrared Spectroscopist / Laser Spectroscopist at the level of
Research Associate to be in charge of the experimental aspects of a
laser gas-sensing project. The objective of the project is to develop
field useable as well as space-qualified mid infrared diode laser gas
sensing technology.
Qualified candidates must have a PhD in Chemistry, Physics, or
related field. A strong background in molecular spectroscopy and
instrument development is essential. Experience in atmospheric
spectroscopy is desirable.
The responsibilities of the Infrared Spectroscopist/ Laser
Spectroscopist will include:

mid-infrared laser gas sensing instrumentation.
* Coordination of the development of this instrumentation with
engineers and other developers to ensure integration across
individual research projects and disciplines.
* Coordination of budgets with the project accountant.
The initial appointment at the Laboratory for Laser Spectroscopy and
Atmospheric Sensing will be for one year, beginning as soon as
possible, and funding is in place for three additional years. The
salary range is $44,000 to 49,500 per annum, commensurate with
qualifications and experience.
Interested candidates should send a curriculum vitae, and arrange for
