英国利兹大学博士后职位—开尔文探针力显微镜与摩擦电气化
利兹大学(University of Leeds),是一所位于英国利兹的公立综合研究型大学,是世界百强名校、英国红砖大学。
利兹大学是罗素大学集团,世界大学联盟、国际大学气候联盟、欧洲大学协会、英联邦大学协会、中英大学工程教育与研究联盟、RENKEI、N8大学联盟、白玫瑰大学联盟成员。
学校前身是成立于1874年的约克郡科学院,1884年与利兹医学院(成立于1831年)合并为约克郡学院,1887年与欧文斯学院(曼彻斯特大学的前身)和利物浦大学学院(利物浦大学的前身)组建联邦制维多利亚大学。1904年爱德华七世颁布皇家宪章,正式成立利兹大学。
据2021年2月学校官网显示,利兹大学拥有1230英亩土地,校园面积98英亩;设有7个学部、41个专业学院(系)、12个跨学科研究所(中心)、2家附属医院;有五栋图书馆,总藏书量达278万册;利兹大学现有在校生36840人,其中本科生27110人,硕士生9730人。
Research Fellow in Kelvin Probe Force Microscope and Tribo-electrification
University of Leeds
Job Description
Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you want to further your career in one of the UKs leading research-intensive Universities?
You will join a collaborative programme between the Schools of Physics and Astronomy (Dr Simon Connell), Chemical Engineering (Prof Mojtaba Ghadiri, Dr Andrew Scott) and Mechanical Engineering (Prof Michael Bryant), Imperial College London (Prof Jerry Heng), and seven companies including Pfizer and AstraZeneca, working on tribo-electrification, the phenomenon of electric charge transfer through friction. This is responsible for the seemingly innocuous electric shocks on escalators to serious fire and explosion hazards in the manufacturing industry, but can also be used to good effect, including the rapidly developing field of Tribo-Electric Nano-Generators (TENG).
Holding an experimental PhD (or have submitted your thesis before taking up the role) in Physics/Engineering or a closely related discipline; you will have research experience, preferably in the areas of instrumentation, signal processing and scanning probe microscopy.
Your project will focus on providing the crucial experimental data that will feed into the wider project of modelling particulate charge distribution resulting from aerodynamic dispersion and handling, and TENG development. This will involve application of Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy, based around the Atomic Force Microscope, to characterise surface charge, as well as morphology and other surface.
