t********t 发帖数: 22 | 1 The Soft Materials Research Laboratory directed by Professor Qibing Pei in
the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at University of
California, Los Angeles is an interdisciplinary research group developing
synthetic polymers and nanocomposites for advanced electronics,
electromechanical, and photonic devices. Current research activities include
but not limited to dielectric elastomers for muscle-like actuation,
bistable electroactive polymers for large-strain rigid-to-rigid actuation,
and stretchable electronics. We anticipate availability for two postdoctoral
fellows to develop functional nanocomposites, dielectric elastomer
materials and actuators. One position mainly focuses on materials
development, and the other on coating, multilayer stacking, and DEA actuator
design and fabrication, with extensive overlapping between the two.
Required qualifications include:
1. PhD in polymer science, materials engineering, mechanical
engineering, chemical engineering, or related fields
2. Strong hands-on experience in several of these fields: materials
development, synthesis of nanocomposites (e.g. graphene nanocomposites),
nanomaterial processing, polymer thin film coating, compliant electrode
materials, 3D printing, multilayer stacking processing, DEA actuator design
and fabrication, high voltage converting circuit design and fabrication,
characterization of thermal conductivity, modeling of heat transfer
processes.
3. Strong communication skill and interpersonal skill
The appointment is initially for 1 year, and may be extended for up to 3
years. Interested candidates may contact Professor Qibing Pei atqpei@seas.
