The applicants could contact Serge if they have questions but they need to apply through our online system using the address given below. Thanks, Serge ********************************************************* Postdoctoral Appointment Argonne National Laboratory The Synchrotron Radiation Studies and Interfacial Materials groups of the Materials Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory have an immediate opening for a Postdoctoral Appointee in the area of first-principles simulations of the properties of electroactive complex-oxide materials. The Appointee’s main goal will be to understand the mechanisms responsible for the switching and screening of ferroelectric polarization in thin ferroelectric films in reducing or oxidizing atmospheres. The theoretical predictions from this project will be complementary to experimental synchrotron structure measurements being carried out by other group members. We seek outstanding candidates with experience in utilization and development of density-functional theory methods as well as in scientific programming. Skill in written and oral communication is desired. Candidates must have received a Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related field within the past three years or expect to receive one within six months. Interested candidates should send a detailed CV, along with a list of publications, and the names and addresses of three references, through the Argonne web site as instructed at http://www.anl.gov/jobs under Postdoctoral openings, Division Postdoctoral Appointments for requisition number 311660 MSD. Questions can be addressed to Serge Nakhmanson, Materials Science Division, by e-mail to nakhmanson-at-anl.gov. Argonne is a U.S. Department of Energy laboratory managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC. Argonne is an equal opportunity employer, and we value diversity in our workforce. -- ********************************************************* Serge M.
