We seek candidates for a tenure track position with specialty in nanosynthesis and non-equilibrium chemistry. The candidate needs to be fluent in both oral and written English and will work on projects aimed at the creation of smart and stimuli-responsive nanomaterials. It is highly desirable that the candidate has working experience with (i) nanosynthesis of metal and semiconductor nanostructures; (ii) synthesis of nanoporous materials such as MOFs; (iii) transport phenomena with emphasis on reaction-diffusion systems; (iv) material characterization techniques ranging from various electron microscope modalities, through XRD, to XPS and NMR spectroscopies. In addition, familiarity with the basic aspects of non-equilibrium phenomena, switchable molecules, light-driven and electrochemical processes is expected. The candidate will combine these fundamental skills to synthesize novel nanomaterials capable of dynamic assembly, internal reconfiguration, energy harvesting, and more.

※ Classification of Research Positions (tenure-track and non-tenure-track)

1. Types of Appointment

Tenure-track

- Those in tenure-track research positions are eligible for a tenure evaluation* if they have met certain requirements.
