Postdoctoral Position, Laboratory of Crystallography,
Tel Aviv University
A postdoctoral position is available from autumn 2002 in
the
crystallography laboratory at Tel Aviv University. Research
involves
studies in areas related to supramolecular chemistry of
porphyrins
(including synthesis, structural analysis and materials
characterization), aiming at the design of new porphyrin-based
materials
with interesting properties. For an overview of our recent
studies on
this subject please refer to the recent highlight articles
in Chem. Eur.
J. 2000, 6, 3863-3870 and Cryst. Eng. Comm. 2002, 4, 109-116.
For further information please contact:
Prof. Israel Goldberg,
School of Chemistry,
Tel Aviv University, 69978

PhD Studentship, Chemical Crystallography
Lab, University of Oxford
A PhD studentship is available from autumn 2002 in the
Chemical Crystallography Laboratory
in Oxford. The project will be supervised by Dr David Watkin
and Dr Richard Cooper, and
includes collaboration with Dr Peter Main in York and Prof
Paul Beurskens in Nijmegen.
Applications are invited from graduate students with a
first or upper second class degree
in chemistry or physics. The graduate is also required to
have fair mathematical ability,
IT skills and must meet EPSRC requirements. Training in
practical and theoretical aspects
of crystallography will be provided.
The Research:
An increasing number of examples are being found where the
basic building block for
crystals of molecular materials is not a single molecule,
but groups of molecules - the so-
called Z'>1 crystals. They are a poorly-understood aspect
of crystal formation, and the X-
ray crystal structure analysis of these materials is not
always simple.
The aims of this project include growing suitable crystals,
analyzing them by a variety of
techniques, and developing new software for processing the
X-ray diffraction data, leading
to a better understanding of the nature and origin of these
materials.
The Laboratory:
The Oxford Chemical Crystallography Laboratory is very well
equipped with single crystal X-
ray diffractometers and computers, and there is access to
excellent powder and solid-state
nmr equipment within the chemistry department.
Applications:
The closing date is 31 August 2002. Applications, in the
form of a letter and curriculum
vitae with the names and addresses of two referees, who
may be contacted prior to
interview, should be posted (not emailed) to: The Administrator,
Inorganic Chemistry
Laboratory, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford,
OX1 3QR, UK.
