    NIST is hiring for a Postdoctoral Research Associate! See below for job details, and how you can apply. Position: Postdoctoral Research Associate in Electron Microscopy Job Type: Full-time Job Description: NIST is actively seeking candidates for two postdoctoral research positions as part of projects related to the CHIPS for America Act. The first project seeks to develop robust, quantitative methods for measuring mechanical strain in real-world semiconductor devices. Geometric complexity and the importance of strain in state-of-the-art nanoelectronics continue to increase, and this project is focused on improving the accuracy of existing techniques (EBSD, TKD, 4-D STEM, Raman, µXRD, etc.) and supplying new reference materials to industry to ensure capabilities for future-generation devices. The second project seeks to develop quantitative, atomic-resolution methods for the three-dimensional characterization of complex semiconductor devices via electron tomography. By coupling advance specimen preparation, cutting-edge electron microscopy instrumentation, and AI-driven data collection and reconstruction, we will deliver a robust suite of measurement tools to the semiconductor industry.     Both positions are term appointments with base periods of three years. Opportunities for extending this term are available. Job Requirements: - Ph.D. in Physics, Materials Science, or a related field with a concentration in electron microscopy methods - Experience in the collection and processing of STEM data, especially either 4D-STEM or electron tomography data as appropriate to the selected project - Computer programming for custom data processing Job Duration: 2 - 3 years Minimum Education: PhD Salary Range: $82,000 - $90,000 Location: Gaithersburg, MD Please get in touch with Dr. Andrew Herzing, at andrew.herzing@nist.gov (https://lnkd.in/eUpaBTB4) to apply. #NISTjob #JobOpening #JobOpportunities
