[US]Ph.D. positions available at University of Florida
Multiple Ph.D. student positions are available in Fall of 2010 in Professor David Wei’s group, in the Department of Chemistry of University of Florida.
The group is developing a vibrant and productive research program focusing on discovering novel electronic and optical properties of metallic and semiconductor nanomaterials and their implications for electronics, photonics, energy, and biomedicine.
A fundamental understanding of the structure-dependent localized optical properties of nanostructures will lead to comprehensive knowledge of the surface plasmon-directed growth of novel anisotropic nanostructures, and design rules for the synthesis and fabrication of hybrid nanostructures with optimized properties for solar energy harvesting, conversion and storage, visible light photocatalysis, chemical and biological detection, drug delivery, and cancer therapeutics. All these projects are high impact and interdisciplinary in nature that combine analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, and materials science and engineering.
The group has strong connection with US national labs with joint projects and supplies opportunities for summer internship. Interested students are welcome to send CV and research statement directly to wei@chem.ufl.edu.

[US]PhD position at the Georgia Institute of Technology
We are interested in PhD students, Post-doc researchers, and visiting scholars who are self-motivated in learning new knowledge and technology and seeking creative idea and solution, and have strong backgrounds in the following areas:
1) Development of intelligent sensing systems using digital camera, 3D Laser, LIght 2) Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and other technologies.
3) Development of computer vision system using images and LiDAR.
4) Solid knowledge and experience on signal (image) processing, machine learning, and data mining.
5) Solid knowledge and experience on developing optimization algorithms and probabilistic models
Our research includes Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and intelligent sensing-based infrastructure system management. The research focuses include:
a) development of sensing-based intelligent roadway asset inventory and management system
-.developing intelligent roadway sign asset inventory and management systems using image and LiDAR processing and recognition.
-.developing automatic pavement condition evaluation system by processing downward pavement images and LiDAR data.
b) developing an intelligent workzone intrusion vehicle detection and warning system using image-based object detection, recognition, and tracking algorithms.
c) developing spatial optimization and stochastic models and algorithms to facilitate large-scale pavement maintenance and rehabilitation decision making process;
d) developing logistics models for large-scale port management.
Research projects are described below:
current research project sponsored by the National Academy of Science (NAS) NCHRP IDEA program on “Development of Sensing System for Highway Workzone Hazard Awareness.” Computer vision, along with other innovative sensors, will be developed to track moving vehicles and pedestrians. In addition, to develop a reliable hazard warning system, a probabilistic model will be developed to quantify the estimation and prediction uncertainties caused by sensing technology.
current research project sponsored by Georgia Logistics Innovation Center to develop a maritime awareness system for automatically detecting and recognizing waterway activities (e.g. containers, vessels, dolphins, environmental problems, etc.) through Savannah Port.
upcoming research project sponsored by the US DOT for developing a Remote-Sensing and GIS-enabled Asset Management System (RS-GAMS). Different state of the art scanning laser technology will be equipped on a van to collect 3D LiDAR data along with image data that is collected using cameras and infrared ray cameras. Intelligent signal processing and object recognition algorithms will be developed to automatically detect and recognize roadway assets, including signs, guardrails, pavement markings, cross slopes, etc.. In addition, 0.5 mm resolution high-performance downward LiDAR will be used to automatically detect pavement surface macro-texture and construction defects, such as segregation, as well as pavement distresses, including cracks, rutting, raveling, etc. Spatial data integration using GPS, IMU, GPS, DMI, etc. will be applied to integrate different data sources. And spatial data fusion methods will be developed to extract features of interest, such as pavement distresses, abnormal maco-texture. It is expected we will analyze pavement texture characteristics at macro level and then extend to micro and nano levels in the future for developing safe, quiet, smooth, and long-life pavements.

[US](PHY)Postdoc position in Univ South Dakota
Postdoctoral Research Position
2010 DUSEL Research Center for Ultra-Low Background Experiments (CUBED) at
Sanford Lab/DUSEL
The South Dakota 2010 DUSEL Research Center (CUBED) at The University of South
Dakota invites applications for two postdoctoral research associates in
experimental particle/nuclear physics and material science to begin in January
2010 and July 2010.
The successful candidates will participate in the 2010 DUSEL Research Center
activities and in the LUX, Majorana, and DEAP/CLEAN collaborations; and will
conduct research associated with a Deep Underground Science and Engineering
Laboratory (DUSEL) potentially sited at Homestake Mine in South Dakota. The
main foci of CUBED are to produce super clean materials through crystal growth
and purification of noble gases, and to develop low background counting
capabilities underground for future DUSEL projects. LUX and DEAP/CLEAN are
aimed at detecting dark matter using noble liquid scintillators and Majorana is
targeted at determining absolute neutrino mass through the neutrinoless double-
beta decay process.
The successful candidates are expected to participate in the activities of
CUBED, to play a major role in physics simulations, next generation detector
development, crystal growth, material purification, detector design, and to
assist in the construction of an Ultra-Low Background Counting Facility at
Homestake. We anticipate that this position will require frequent travel to,
and extended stays at the Homestake Underground Laboratory in Lead, South
Dakota.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. or equivalent in experimental particle and/or
nuclear physics, or material sciences, hardware experience, and experience with
Linux/UNIX, C++ and object-oriented programming.
Applicants must provide a current curriculum vitae and research statement, and
should arrange for at least three letters of recommendation to be sent on their
behalf. Applicants must apply online at https://yourfuture.sdbor.edu or mail
