Dear Spinlanders,
could you kindly pass this advertisement to any interested candidate?
Best regards,

A post-doctoral position is available in the field of Physics of Molecular
Structures:
Dynamics of novel microporous materials based on metal organic framework
The project addresses structural characterization and detailed investigation of dynamics related to adsorption properties of novel microporous materials based on stable metal-organic frameworks.
The major activities related to the position include advanced spectroscopic characterization of the newly synthesized materials and a thorough investigation of rotational and translational mobilities of the system components – the microporous framework as well as the adsorbed species such as methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen or water. For this purpose there are available two NMR spectrometers equipped for variable temperature multinuclear liquid and solid state measurements under static as well as the magic angle spinning conditions. The spectrometers are also equipped with a strong pulsed field gradient accessory for the state-of-art studies of translational diffusion in heterogeneous systems and for microimaging. Complementary techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry, gel permeation chromatography, optical spectroscopies etc. will be also utilized.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. and strong background in physics or physical chemistry, especially in NMR spectroscopy (ideally including relaxation and/or diffusion measurements), thermodynamics, and experimental data processing.
The project will be supervised by Dr. Jan Lang, associate professor, Department of Low Temperature Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University (e-mail contact: Jan.Lang_at_mff.cuni.cz).
These positions offer:
1 year contract from October 2018 with a possible renewal in case of mutual interest
the salary comparable to the starting salary of an Assistant Professor at the Faculty
Interested candidates should submit:
CV
brief description of research expertise and plans (1–2 pages)
list of publications
copy of PhD thesis (or a link for downloading)
two letters of recommendation
!!!!! Submissions should be emailed to galikova_at_dekanat.mff.cuni.cz not later than July 15, 2018. Shortlisted candidates may be invited for an interview.
