Post-Doctoral Fellow in Triboluminescence Detection Technology
HPMI and the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering is seeking a highly motivated researcher to fill in an opening of a postdoc position in synthesis and characterization of semiconductor thin-film based triboluminescence detector and related nanostructures. Only applicants with extensive hands-on experience in synthesis and optical measurements of semiconductors/nanomaterials will be considered. The applicant should be expert in using of SEM, TEM, XRD, EPR, UV-Vis, FTIR, Radiation simulator and, EIS. The period of employment is 1 year, with a possibility of extension for a 2nd year based on performance and funding availability. The interested candidates are invited to send CV, three representing ISI publication and names of at least two references to Mr. Frank Allen at (fallen@fsu.edu). These required documents should be sent in one pdf file only. The application deadline: April 27, 2013.
