Research Opportunities, Micro and Nanofluidics Lab, School of Materials Science & Engineering at Clemson University, SC: Field-controlled manipulation of minute amount of liquids in fiber-based nanofluidics
Two research associate or post-doctoral positions and multiple PhD student positions are available immediately to work on a 5-year program on Field-controlled manipulation of microdroplets. The program is focused on development of fundamental principles of liquid/solid interactions at micro and nanoscales in the presence of Electro-Magnetic fields. The candidates-experimentalists for post-doc / research associate positions are expected to be familiar with microwave and plasma diagnostics and have a general background in applied electrophysics. The candidates-experimentalist which are familiar with flow imaging, optical diagnostics, and basic techniques of physico-chemical fluid mechanics are encouraged to apply as well. The candidates-theoreticians for post-doc / research associate positions are expected to be familiar with numerical methods of continuum electrodynamics or fluid mechanics. BS or MS students with background in physics, mechanics, chemical engineering or materials science & engineering, or applied mathematics are encouraged to apply for PhD student positions. We are looking for dynamic and active researchers interested in working with a strong team of graduate students in the state-of-the-art Micro and Nanofluidic Lab. Currently, the group consists of 6 PhD students with background in physics, mechanical engineering, and materials science working in different fields of nanotechnology. The environment of the School of Materials Science & Engineering at Clemson University is friendly and welcoming for researchers looking for broadening their knowledge, expertise, and growth potential.
