A postdoctoral position in experimental Materials Physics is open for immediate availability for an initial period of 1 year with the possibility of renewal. The research involves research on clathrates and related material systems, in addition to the discovery of new bulk materials, as well as physical properties measurements in developing fundamental structure-property relationships of these novel materials. The position will require experience in the synthesis and crystal growth of bulk inorganic (not oxide or thin-film) materials of varying types and their structural, chemical and physical properties characterization. Excellent communication skills (oral and written) are necessary as daily interaction with students and research scientists in a group environment, as well as written reports and oral presentations, is typical. The ability to set-up and maintain laboratory equipment is also required. The position also requires excellent organizational skills. A PhD in experimental Chemistry, Materials Physics, Materials Science or related field is required. Applicants should send an e-mail with current position and a list of research accomplishments in the body of the email, and include the following in one PDF file as an attachment: (i) a resume; (ii) list of publications; (iii) list of conference presentations; (iv) a statement of research experience that directly addresses the above requirements and (v) at least three references with the subject line in the email “clathrates postdoc position" to
