Carnegie Science, Earth and Planets Laboratory seeks applications for a postdoctoral position focused on the synthesis and characterization of novel covalent framework materials. The position will focus on improving high-pressure and high-temperature synthesis methods and investigating a range of unique structures. The successful candidate will work closely in a team comprised of experimental and computational physicists, chemists, and materials scientists.

The initial appointment is for one year with the possibility for an additional year pending progress and availability of funds. The position is expected to be available starting fall 2025 and will remain open until filled.

Minimum qualifications:  A PhD in physics, chemistry, materials science or a related field is the requirement for this position.

Desired qualifications: Expertise in solid-state chemistry/physics and structure/properties characterization. Understanding high-pressure techniques including laser-heated diamond anvil cells and/or large-volume press techniques is desirable. The successful candidate is expected to be able to work in both independent and collaborative group environments.

Only completed applications submitted through Interfolio will be considered.
