Purpose:
OVERVIEW: The Chemical Sciences Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) currently has a postdoctoral position available for an analytical scientist with expertise in fundamental studies and analytical applications of mass spectrometry. The goal of the research project is to exceed the existing analytical capability for nanometer scale spatially resolved material characterization at interfaces under ambient conditions through a merger of advanced spectroscopic and ultrafast time-resolved imaging, scanning probe microscopy, and mass spectrometry. The project is multifaceted and involves several individuals at ORNL including mass spectrometrists, optical spectroscopists and computational modeling experts.PURPOSE: Under general supervision, the Postdoctoral Research Associate will conductresearch specifically on atmospheric pressure surface sampling (laser ablation, thermal desorption, liquid extraction), gas phase ion and neutral transport and separation, and on ionization to further mass spectrometry-based chemical imaging.
Major Duties/Responsibilities:
Participate in project planning, lead laboratory experimentation and provide initial data analysis
Modify mass spectrometry instrumentation as required to carry out required studies/measurements
Responsible for presenting and reporting research results and publishing scientific results in peer-reviewed journals in a timely manner
Ensure compliance with environment, safety, health and quality program requirements
Maintain strong commitment to the implementation and perpetuation of values and ethics
Qualifications Required:
The incumbent will possess a PhD in Chemistry or Physics or a closely related science discipline, must have completed all degree requirements before starting their appointment, and be within five years of receiving their Doctorate. Possession of a strong record of productive and creative research demonstrated by publications in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at scientific conferences are required. Must have demonstrated expertise in mass spectrometry principles, instrumentation operation, and experience with instrumentation hardware modifications, in particular ion sources. Excellent interpersonal skills and oral and written communication skills are mandatory. The abilities to be a self-starter, to work independently and willing to participate creatively in a collaborative team effort are required. QUALIFICATIONS DESIRED: Experience with atomic force microscopy, nanoscale optical spectroscopy, or computational modeling for gas phase ion or liquid flow dynamics is a plus. This position is for one year with the option to renew term annually for a maximum of two years.
Work Directions and Interfaces:
Position reports to the Group Leader of the Organic and Biological Mass Spectrometry Group in the Chemical Sciences Division. Interface with administrative staff, managers and visitors to ORNL.
