*Position for Ph.D. Thesis Project*
*Crystal structure determination of metal organic salts for conservation
science using high resolution X-ray powder diffraction*
The State Academy of Art and Design Stuttgart in cooperation with the
Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research is offering a position for
a Ph.D. student. The research project aims for a better understanding of
the production of pigments and the corrosion of materials used by
mankind during history. In many cases, single crystals suitable for
conventional structure determination cannot be obtained, neither from
natural nor synthetic samples. Therefore, unknown crystalline natural or
artificial corrosion products either sampled from objects or synthesized
in the lab shall be studied by laboratory and synchrotron X-ray powder
diffraction.
The position is available from July 2016. The successful applicant will
receive a salary according to the available grant from the Stuttgart
State Academy (2/3 TV-L E13 for three years). Working place will be at
the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart-Büsnau.
The candidate should have a strong background in any field of chemistry
or physics. A short motivational letter and a short CV should be sent to
Prof. Robert Dinnebier (r.dinneb...@fkf.mpg.de
<mailto:r.dinneb...@fkf.mpg.de>) and to Prof. Gerhard Eggert
(gerhard.egg...@abk-stuttgart.de) preferably by E-mail.
