Job Description

A postdoctoral research fellowship is available under the direction of Prof. Scott Misture, lnamori Professor of Materials Science & Engineering at Alfred University. The work centers on synthesis, characterization and properties of oxide ceramics for applications in energy storage and energy conversion.

Salary:$65,000

Postdoctoral positions are open in two general areas: 

+ Study of redox-active oxides, for example those used in cathode and anode layers in solid oxide fuel cells. Detailed in-situ studies focused on electron microscopy (SEM and S/TEM), diffraction and scattering (including total scattering) and Raman or IR spectroscopy will be required.

+ Synthesis and structure studies of complex oxides with large structural blocks such as titanate shear phases, oxides that form large framework structures, and tunnel-structure oxides, all of which may be used in ion adsorption and electrochemical applications. A focus on atmosphere­ controlled synth...
