Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU) offered the first Materials Engineering degree in Singapore under the division of Materials Engineering in 1991. With the increasing demand for materials engineers, the division was subsequently elevated to a full-fledged engineering school in 2000. The School of Materials Engineering (MSE) now stands as one of the world's largest Materials Engineering departments.

We are looking for a Research Fellow who will be required to design synthetic routes for nanoparticles, develop new formulations and do extensive characterization. This project will involve understanding of formulation stability, detailed thermal and x-ray characterization. The project would involve a great deal of synthesis and characterization techniques. The Research Fellow will be expected to work in a team consisting of materials scientists and physicists.

Key Responsibilities:

• To design and synthesis metallic nanomaterials
• To develop new formulations for various applications
• To critically analyse and optimize the design and stability behaviour of the materials and its formulation
• To produce patentable and publishable materials.
• To guide and mentor students

Job Requirements:

• Ph.D. in chemistry, materials science.
• Exhibit expertise in the characterization of semiconductors (e.g., XRD, SEM, EQE, PL, etc.)
• Excellent communication and organizational skills while hard-working and able to meet tight deadlines
• Able to work independently in gathering information/ data and prepare documents for reporting/ papers
• Willing to contribute team services like sharing/ coaching new members with relevant laboratory/ technical skills

We regret that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
