<h2>Postdoctoral Research Associate in Li-Based Battery Materials <br>
Neutron Scattering Science Division and Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences<br>
Oak Ridge National Laboratory <br>
Oak Ridge, Tennessee<o:p></o:p></h2>
<h3>ORNL10-73-NSSD<o:p></o:p></h3>
<p><strong>Project Description:</strong> <br>
The Neutron Scattering Sciences Division (NSSD) of Oak Ridge National
Laboratory (ORNL) (http://www.ornl.gov ) operates two of the brightest neutron
sources in the world, the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) and the High Flux
Isotope Reactor (HFIR), for basic and applied research in a broad array of
disciplines including physics, chemistry, materials science and biology. SNS
and HFIR are home to a group of scientists and a suite of instruments dedicated
to the study of large-scale structures.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The Neutron Scattering Science Division (NSSD) (<a
href="http://neutrons.ornl.gov">http://neutrons.ornl.gov </a>) and Center for
Nanophase Materials Sciences (CNMS) (<a href="http://www.cnms.ornl.gov">http://www.cnms.ornl.gov
</a>) have an immediate opening for a post-doctoral research associate.
Applications are sought from highly creative and motivated individuals who will
join an interdisciplinary team to study and characterize the formation of surface
layers on Li-based battery materials. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p><strong>Qualifications: </strong><br>
A Ph.D. within the last five years in Material Sciences, Physics, Chemistry,
Chemical Engineering, or a related field is required, preferably in
neutron/x-ray scattering, e.g. reflectivity, small-angle scattering, or
diffraction (techniques for material characterization). Must possess mechanical
and design skills. Previous experience in electrochemistry is desirable, but
not required. The successful candidate should be a self-motivated individual
able to work independently yet in a team environment on technically challenging
problems and able to participate creatively in refining program direction.
Presentation at national meetings and publication of scientific results in
peer-reviewed journals is expected. The candidate must have good oral and
written communication skills and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary
team and interact effectively with colleagues. Applicants must have received
their most recent degree within five years and complete all degree requirements
before starting their appointment.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><strong>Technical Contact:</strong><br>
Technical questions may be addressed to Dr. Ke An (<a
href="mailto:kean@ornl.gov">kean@ornl.gov</a>) or Dr. John Ankner (<a
