An additional postdoctoral position will become available in my laboratory
in September 1999.
We continue to be interested in applications of pulsed magnetic field
gradients and RF gradients for the study of diffusion and flow (1,2,3).

Projects now underway include an investigation of toroid cavity detectors
(4). Two major
projects are concerned with:

1. Electrophoretic NMR of functionalized gold clusters (nanoparticles) in
concentric cells and/or
toroid cavities. (in collaboration with R.W. Murray)
2. Diffusion studies of block copolymers in supercritical CO2 in high
pressure capillary cells and
in toroid cavity detectors. (in collaboration with J.M. DeSimone)

These physical/analytical experiments require a knowledge of liquid phase
NMR methods, e.g.
relaxation, exchange, and 2D. Experience with pulsed gradient methods and
NMR hardware is
also important. Knowledge of polymer science and analytical separation
methods would be
useful.

Applicants should send a resume and arrange to have three letters of
recommendation sent to the address shown below (or by EMAIL).
