Description general research area:
EMAT
focusses on developping and applying advanced
transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques
including atomic resolution and energy-loss
spectroscopy for the characterisation of
a variety of materials such as alloys, ceramics,
semiconductors, nanostructures, nanoparticles,
etc.... The equipment consists of six TEM
instruments (200CX, 4000EX, CM20, CM30,
HVTEM 1250, 3000F) plus the necessary sample
preparation machinery.
|
| Description
particular research topics for MULTIMAT:
In
the framework of the RTN project the focus
will be on the characteristaion of structures
relevant for understanding the behaviour
of phase transformations and the resulting
nano- and microstructures. |
| Available
positions:
Early
Stage Researchers
Preference is for Masters in Physics, Materials Science or Chemistry with a
good knowledge of solid state physics, materials science and preferably some
training in materials characterisation techniques including transmission
electron microscopy. The particular research topic lies in the area of phase
transformations in alloys or oxides with emphasis on displacive
transformations.
The preferred starting date is October 1, 2006 with an envisaged stay of 3
years during which a Ph.D. work could be completed.
Applications should be sent to the team leader (address see above) as hard
copy (no e-mail) including a detailed CV (with course list & grades), copy
of diploma and Master's thesis and recommendation letters of two professors
(including list of 10 recent publications of these referees).
