Research Positions Opening In Solar Energy : Thuwal, Saudi Arabia
The Solar and Photovoltaics Engineering Research Center is an exciting interdisciplinary and critical effort in the mission of the newly established King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST,www.kaust.edu.sa), located on the Red Sea in Thuwal, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. We are seeking excellent candidates at the Post Doctoral level in areas related to ultrafast laser spectroscopy and imaging of inorganic and organic photovoltaic materials and devices.
The successful candidates are expected to:
• have hands-on experience on building optical setups, background in optical measurements of photovoltaic materials and structures and experience on working with ultrashort laser pulses and related spectroscopic measurement tools;
• be capable of maintaining and operating femtosecond oscillators, regenerative and parametric amplifiers, supercontinuum sources, Nd:YAG lasers and Streak cameras;
• be familiar with two or more of the following methods: Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography, Two-photon Polymerization, Transient Absorption Spectroscopy, Fluorescence Up-conversion Spectroscopy, Fluorescence Lifetime Spectroscopy, Time-of-flight Spectroscopy, Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy, Four-wave mixing spectroscopy and Femtosecond Laser Annealing;
• be self-driven and independent researchers, supervise students and be capable of writing and communicating in English in scientific papers and proposals.
A Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering, or related areas in science and engineering is required. Candidates with poor oral and written English language skills will not be considered. A cover letter, curriculum vitae, and names of at three references must be submitted in a single pdf or Word file to solar@kaust.edu.sa and include the words RESEARCHER SOLAR CENTER in the subject line. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until positions are filled. Please address your cover letter and any questions to the Solar Search Committee Chair at the email address above.

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, 'Press on,' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race"Calvin Coolidge
"The aim of education must be the training of independently acting and thinking individuals who, however, can see in service to community their highest life achievement" Albert Einstein (1867-1934)
