Atomic Layer Deposition International
Postdoctoral Appointee - MSD Surface Science and Deposition
Atomic Layer Deposition International, Lemont, Illinois, United States, 60439
Overview
The Materials Science Division (MSD) of Argonne National Laboratory is seeking applicants for a postdoctoral appointee in interface science, vapor deposition, and cluster synthesis. The research project is a joint effort with the Solar Energy Conversion group supervised by Alex Martinson and aims to probe fundamental mechanisms for light-driven energy conversion in artificial photosynthesis. The work investigates how molecular materials coupled to solid-phase scaffolds may influence molecular motion, photoinduced kinetics, charge dynamics, and assembly durability. The project targets functional assemblies at transparent and electrically conductive interfaces. We will leverage advances in vapor phase infiltration synthesis to interrogate electronic and atomic structures of photosensitizers and solar fuels catalysts in-situ, under operando conditions and with atomic-scale resolution. Responsibilities
Conceive, plan, and implement the scientific research related to interface science, vapor deposition, and cluster synthesis.
Report relevant results in publications and conference presentations.
Utilize state-of-the-art facilities and gain in-depth knowledge of in situ characterization of deposition science and heterogeneous interfaces.
Collaborate with the Solar Energy Conversion group and other researchers to advance the project goals.
Qualifications
A PhD in chemistry, materials science or related field; received within the last 5 years or upcoming year.
Significant written and oral communication skills, and the ability to work in teams.
Desirable: Experience in atomic layer deposition (ALD), photochemistry, electrochemistry.
Desirable: Familiarity with spectroscopic ellipsometry, transparent conducting oxides, clusters and quantum dots, and thin film characterization methods.
Job Details
Job Family: Postdoctoral
Job Profile: Postdoctoral Appointee
Worker Type: Long-Term (Fixed Term)
