Position Description

PARADIM (Platform for the Accelerated Realization, Analysis, and Discovery of Interface Materials) is a national user facility sponsored by the National Science Foundation. PARADIM seeks to accelerate the realization of inorganic materials with properties that could transform next-generation electronics. PARADIM is a partnership between Cornell University and Johns Hopkins University that seeks to enable a more effective way of doing materials research, one that accelerates materials discovery by establishing an ecosystem—a national community of practitioners—and equipping them with theoretical and experimental methods that enable them to reduce to practice the inorganic materials of which they dream. To achieve this ecosystem vision, PARADIM’s mission is to empower practitioners to accelerate the discovery of atomically engineered inorganic materials that revolutionize electronics. The core capability of PARADIM is its user facilities. Insuring that these tools and support staff are well aligned with PARADIM’s mission and worthy of a national user facility is vital to the success of the Platform. To that end, PARADIM user facilities build upon the existing infrastructure of some of the most advanced growth, characterization, analysis, and modeling tools—supplemented by new tools with unparalleled capabilities—and make them available to the broader scientific community.
