Postdoctoral Position
Postdoc position funded by the � Region des pays de la Loire � could be
available at the � Laboratoire des Fluorures � of � Universite du Maine �
(Le Mans , France) for the following project :
We have recently discover a new class of fast oxide-ion conductor based on
La2Mo2O9 (Nature, vol 404, 856-858). These materials attract considerable
interest for both fundamental and technical reasons, due to their important
fields of application, among which solid oxide fuel cells, oxygen sensors,
or oxygen pumping devices. More work is needed in order to fully
characterise the structure and properties of this new class of material.
The candidate will work on synthesis (powder, single crystal) by solid state
reaction, on structural characterisation (X-ray powder and single crystal
diffraction, electron diffraction JEOL2010), on physical characterisation
(impedance spectroscopy). Candidate with different knowledge related to the
characterisation of fast oxide-ion conductor are also invited to postulated.
Information (in French) on our laboratory are available on our site
http://www.univ-lemans.fr/sciences/fluorures/ldf.html
Our laboratory will submit a proposition (a candidate + a subject), closing
date 21 Mai 2000.
In case of acceptance, the position is available for 11 month with a
possible extension. The salary is about 12000FF per month. The applicant
should hold a PhD degree, be younger than 35. Application including a CV, a
list of publications (and references) should be adressed by E-Mail to me .
