[交流] Penn State University热电材料及器件-Postdoc/PhD

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar to conduct fundamental research in the areas of thermoelectric materials and devices. The application platform will target cooling systems.

This position requires extensive experience in the areas of high-zT thermoelectric materials (e.g. bismuth telluride), thermoelectric-based cooling technology, metal coating, diffusion barriers, module fabrication, and module performance testing. The candidate should have experience with synthesizing the thermoelectric alloys using processes such as mechanical alloying and crystal growth and in measurement of transport properties. Further, the candidate should have experience with metallization development using vacuum deposition or other methods and knowledge of contact resistance quantification. These experiences will be evaluated based upon the prior peer-reviewed high impact factor journal publications. The candidate will conduct materials synthesis, microscopy and diffraction studies, thermoelectric property measurement and module fabrication. Thus, candidate with prior experience in fabrication of thermoelectric alloys is highly desired. Further, prior knowledge in modelling of thermoelectric properties and device performance is desired. The candidate will be actively collaborating with multiple academic and industry team members and thus good communication skills are desired. The candidate is expected to participate in development of project reports and proposals and thus good technical writing skills are highly desired.

The thermoelectric laboratory is located Steidle Building at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Penn State University Park Campus. Applicants are required to have a Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate in Engineering, Material Science, Physics or related fields. Before the effective date of hire, applicants need to provide evidence of completion of the Ph.D. degree.

The Pennsylvania State University’s College of Earth and Mineral Sciences takes an active role in building talented, inclusive and culturally competent workforce. We understand that our shared future is guided by basic principles of fairness, mutual respect, and commitment to each other. Applicants should share this commitment to fostering diversity, equity, inclusive excellence, and belonging and of engagement that creates an inclusive environment in their department/workplace.

Application review will begin immediately, and the position will remain open until the position is filled. Interested applicants should upload the following pdf documents: (i) Cover letter, (ii) CV and (iii) Publication with your application. For additional information about this position, please contact Dr. Bed Poudel (bup346@psu.edu) and Dr. Wenjie Li (wzl175@psu.edu)
