Dear Colleagues, I want to bring to your attention an opening we have in the Polymers Division at NIST for a research staff position. The position is initially a two-year appointment, with potential for a permanent appointment. Please forward this to any qualified individuals who maybe interested. Candidates can send their resumes and three references (names and contact information only) to wenli@nist.gov. Wen-li Wu NIST Fellow Materials Science and Engineering laboratory mailing address: Mail Stop 8541 Rm.B320, Bldg.224 100 Bureau Drive NIST Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8541 tel: 301.975.6839 fax: 301.975.3928 email: wenli@nist.gov http://polymers.msel.nist.gov <http://polymers.msel.nist.gov/> RESEARCH STAFF POSITION, SMALL ANGLE SCATTERING Polymers Division National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Applications are invited from qualified candidates for a research staff position in the area of small angle scattering (x-rays, neutrons, light) in the Electronics Materials Group of the Polymers Division, at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, Maryland. More information on polymers and electronics materials research at NIST can be found at www.nist.gov/polymers. Responsibilities of this position include: (1) planning and directing an ongoing project on the use of small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) to measure the critical dimensions and quality of nanoscale structures fabricated by the semiconductor industry; (2) identifying and leading new project areas in the development of small-angle scattering, reflectivity, and diffraction; (3) fostering collaborations within NIST and with U.S. industry and other Federal agencies; and (4) scheduling the operation, maintaining hardware, and enhancing the capabilities of the SAXS and high resolution diffraction facilities in the Polymers Division. A qualified applicant will have: (1) demonstrated experience in planning and conducting research in the use of x-rays for material characterization including instrument design and fabrication, modeling and quantitative interpretation of data from x-ray diffraction and reflectivity measurements; (2) strong communication skills (speaking, writing); (3) demonstrated ability in teamwork and in working with others; (4) expert knowledge in the dynamical theory of x-ray diffraction; and (5) expert knowledge in polymer science, colloid and interface science, or related field. The applicant will be evaluated, in addition to the qualifications listed above, on their potential to become a world class expert in x-ray scattering and diffraction theory and its application to leading scientific problems; and on their ability to identify new research topics, to define workable research approaches to achieve the technical goals, and to develop strategies to acquire necessary resources. The position is initially a two-year appointment, with potential for a permanent appointment. U.S. citizenship is required. A Ph.D. in physical science or engineering is desired. Salary range: $58,206 to $127,442 (Physical Scientist ZP-1301-III/IV), commensurate with experience. Applicants should send a resume and three references (names and contact information only) by post or e-mail to Dr. Wen-li Wu, NIST Polymers Division, 100 Bureau Drive, MS 8541, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, wenli.wu@nist.gov. Review of applications will begin May 5, 2008, and will continue until the position is filled. NIST, a bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce, is an Equal Opportunity Employer _______________________________________________ sa_scat mailing list sa_scat@iucr.org http://scripts.iucr.org/mailman/listinfo/sa_scat
