We make enduring contributions to secure our society against high consequence terrorist threats and national incidents through effective use of science, technology, and systems solutions. Please visit our website at www.sandia.gov. We are searching for Post Docs in Inorganic/Organic Framework Gas Storage Materials for the Surface and Interface Science Department at the Albuquerque facility. The salary is $80,000 per year. A benefit and relocation package is available. Must be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Security Clearance.
Engage various methods of both inorganic and metal-organic framework syntheses, materials characterization, gas sorption and stability studies. Conduct research that provides basic science understanding on one or more of the following topics related to nuclear waste form materials research: use of zeolite/molecular chemistry for capturing iodine (why the structure is selective for iodine), gas sorption measurement strategies for quantitative analysis of iodine captured on select zeolite materials, and structural stability, encapsulation (ceramic, glass), and time durability studies of the incorporation of targeted zeolites into waste forms. Closely interface and collaborate with other researchers both internal and external to Sandia. Under mentor’s guidance, the postdoctoral candidate must be capable of independently conducting various research-related activities including: novel porous materials and/or glass synthesis (and related characterization), gas sorption materials studies, and gas storage materials studies. State-of-the-art facilities are available for materials growth, fabrication and measurements.
