Postdoc Position Available in the area of Conductive
Polymers in the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering
At Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)
Research Topic:
Conductive
polymers are attractive as semiconducting materials for field effect
transistors. However, their mobility remains low for practical applications. We
attempt to improve their performance with hybrid of conductive polymers and
carbon nanotubes.
Job description: We are making hybrid of carbon nanotubes and conductive polymers to make better
transistors.
Requirements: PhD in Polymers or Materials Science; experience
in synthesis of conductive polymers. Publication track
records.
Professor Mary
Chan-Park
Dr
Chan-Park did her PhD in polymers in MIT in 1993. She then did her postdoctoral
fellow under the sponsorship of Dow Corning (USA). She worked for 10 years in industries in
various technical management positions in USA and Singapore. She was a senior
technical manager in Sipix Imaging (CA, USA) from
1999-2001. She then joined the Nanyang Technological
University (NTU) as Associate Professor in 2001. She is currently also
Associate Chair of the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering in
NTU.
Dr
Chan-Park has a vibrant research group with 7 postdoctoral fellows and 9
PhD/Masters. Her current interests are in Printed Carbon Nanotubes
Electronics. She has published more than 95 peered review papers (in Advanced Functional Materials, Small, Chem Mat, Langmuir, Macromolecules, Applied Physics
Letters, Nanotechnology, etc). She has also got 15 patents and several patent
applications.
