Postdoc-position:
Spectroscopy of multiply charged transition metal
complexes in the gas phase. Applications are invited for a
postdoctoral position in the group of Prof. A. J. Stace at
Sussex University, to develop new instrumentation to study the
electronic spectroscopy of doubly and triply charged
transition metal complexes in the gas phase. This new
experiment builds on our recent success at developing a
technique for generating complexes containing transition
metals in their more usual oxidation states.Examples of the
technique can be found in JACS 119, 10239 (1997); 121, 4837
(1999); 122, 11138 (2000); 123, 4223 (2001).
The new apparatus will combine this technique with that of
ion trapping and time-of-flight mass spectrometry to record
electronic spectra from cold ions. The ultimate objective
being to study ligand field spectroscopy in the gas phase.
Preliminary results of this nature can be found in JCP 112,
7751 (2000); 114, 6499 (2001). Applicants should have a
background in either Physics or Chemical Physics and, more
importantly, some experience of gas phase ion chemistry in the
form of ion optics, ion traps, or the design and construction
of experiments based on ion detection. The position is
supported by EPSRC and could last for up to three years.
Applicants should send a CV and the names of two referees to:
Prof. A. J. Stace,
School of Chemistry, University of
Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QJ, U.K. or to
(16/09/2002).
Postdoc-position: A European pre- or
postdoctoral position in experimental quantum optics is open
at the Institut fur Laser-Physik (ILP), University
Hamburg.
The candidate (who should be citizen of one of the EU
states except
Germany or of an associate state (Bulgaria,
Cyprus, Czech Republik,
Estonia, Hungary, Latvia,
Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia,
Iceland, Norway, Israel) will participate in the formation of
a Bose-Einstein Condensate of metastable calcium atoms. A
background in one or more of the following areas is favorable
but not required: Ultrastable laser sources, Laser
spectroscopy, Laser cooling, Bose-Einstein Condensation.
The project at ILP is carried out within an European
research network on cold-atoms and ultra-precise atomic clocks
that has been established to provide the
foundation for the
next generation of atomic clocks.
Salary will be set according to the Marie Curie allowance,
cat. 30.
Relocation costs and travels to the home community
during the employment period will be supported. The position
will remain open until a suitable candidate is identified.
University Hamburg is an equal opportunity employer.
