TWO CARBON CHEMISTRY SEARCHES:

My client is a nanotechnology company using carbon nanotubes for the development of next-generation semiconductor devices. These devices include memory, logic, and other semiconductor products. In the field of memory, the company is developing a high-density nonvolatile Random Access Memory. The company's objective is to deliver a product that will replace all existing forms of memory, such as DRAM, SRAM and flash memory, with nonvolatile RAM. The potential applications for the nonvolatile memory my client is developing are extensive and include the ability to enable instant-on computers and to replace the memory in devices such as cell phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, and PDAs, as well as applications in the networking arena. Nonvolatile RAM can be manufactured for both standalone and embedded memory applications. My client is a successful, stable, and growing company that is a leader in the field of nanotechnology. If you are interested in a specific job opportunity, please send me a resume. Referrals and suggestions are always welcomed.

RETAINED SEARCH FOR SYNTHETIC INORGANIC CHEMIST

(REVISED VERSION)


My very dynamic startup client in the Southwest seeks a synthetic inorganic chemist, or *chemical physicist*. The applicant should have a Ph.D. in, Chemistry, Physics or Materials Science with at least 10 years of hands-on laboratory experience synthesizing and processing complex oxides using both wet chemical and thin film techniques. *Knowledge of Solid State Physics is important*.

The successful candidate will work with scientists and engineers inside and outside of the company to design, synthesize, characterize and test materials that have application specific properties. So, a crucial skill of the successful applicant will be the ability to relate a material's chemical composition and structure to its thermal, electrical and magnetic properties.

We are seeking a self-motivated, self directed individual who will help establish their own work environment, including building a team to support the overall goal of developing novel materials. The successful candidate will be expected to help write patents, and other activities related to building an intellectual property portfolio.

We will particularly look for evidence of:

Experience in *inorganic chemistry or chemical physics*

*(Please give examples and details)*

Experience in relating material details (composition, structure, microstructure) to properties and performance at the material, device, and application levels.

A strong technical background and an aptitude for conducting research in a commercial environment.

Excellent interpersonal communication skills.

Ability to plan, organize and lead research teams.
