Job Opportunities

Position 1:
The Center for Research on Interface Structure and Properties at Yale (an NSF Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC)) has an opening for a Postdoctoral Associate studying the physics of complex oxide materials. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in materials physics or related fields. Experience with structural and surface analytical techniques, including scanning probe microscopies, MBE growth, and electronic transport measurements is desirable. A curriculum vitae and three letters of recommendation should be sent to CRISP@yale.edu, along with hard copies mailed to Prof. Victor Henrich, CRISP, Yale University, 401 Becton Center, P.O. Box 208284, New Haven, CT 06520-8284. The recommendation letters should be sent under separate cover directly by their authors. Applications will be processed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Yale is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from qualified women and minority group members.

Position 2:
The Center for Research on Interface Structure and Phenomena (CRISP) at Yale, an NSF Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC), has established a new interdisciplinary research position at the postdoctoral level. The focus is on performing theoretical studies of the structural, mechanical, chemical, and electronic properties of complex oxides and their interfaces by both applying state-of-the-art methods and developing novel approaches for dealing with electronic correlations. In addition, the theoretical effort will connect with parallel experimental efforts within the MRSEC. The candidate should have a Ph.D. in materials physics or a related field and have prior experience with first principles calculations of material properties. For further information, please contact Prof. Sohrab Ismail-Beigi (sohrab.ismail-beigi@yale.edu) or Prof. John Tully (john.tully@yale.edu). A curriculum vitae and three letters of recommendation should be sent to CRISP@yale.edu, or to CRISP, Yale University, 401 Becton Center, P.O. Box 208284, New Haven, CT 06520-8284. Recommenders should send letters directly under separate cover. Applications will be processed beginning on January 29th, 2007. Yale is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from qualified women and minority group members.
