Postdoc position (fwd)

Post-Doctoral Research Assistant

Electron Holography of Semiconductor Devices

Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy
University of Cambridge, UK

A Post-Doctoral Research Assistant position is available from 1 October
2002 to pursue a programme of research into the development of electron
holography of semiconductor devices, with a particular emphasis on the use
of a novel electrical biasing holder to pass electrical currents through
samples as they are examined in the TEM.

The successful applicant will join a small team at Cambridge developing
electron holography for the characterisation of both electric and magnetic
fields in nanostructured materials. The research will be carried out in
conjunction with the Universities of Surrey and Limerick, as well as with
industry and with collaborators outside the UK.

It is essential that applicants have experience of advanced transmission
electron microscopy and image processing with a background in an
experimental physical science. Experience of electron holography is
desirable but not essential.

The position is funded by the EPSRC and is for 2 years in the first
instance. The starting salary will be on the University RA1A scale (Ł17,626
- Ł26,491).

Informal enquiries can be made to Dr Paul Midgley, Tel. +44 (0)1223 334561,
E-mail: pam33@cam.ac.uk or to Dr Rafal Dunin-Borkowski, Tel. +44 (0)1223
334564, E-mail: rafal.db@msm.cam.ac.uk.

Applications should be sent to Dr P.A. Midgley, Department of Materials
Science and Metallurgy, University of Cambridge, Pembroke Street,
Cambridge, CB2 3QZ, UK, and should include a full CV with the names and
addresses of two referees.

Closing date: 31 Aug 2002.
