Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
3 PhD and 1 postdoctoral positions : effects of ... (1 reply)
Dear Professor,
Herewith I would like to submit my applications for the Post-Doctor position in your research group. My research interest covers the investigation of designing efficient, stable, and non-toxic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by using state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) calculations and I published 16 papers including 2 papers in Journal of materials Chemistry A (Impact factor > 9.9), 3 papers in Physical review B as the first author.

Back to Job listings...
Three PhD positions and one Postdoc position are available to work with Prof. Xavier Gonze (faculty.skoltech.ru/people/xaviergonze) at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) (www.skoltech.ru/en/about/) in Moscow, Russia. The knowledge of English is required, knowledge of Russian is NOT a requirement. PhD positions start on November 1, 2019, postdoc might start in summer or later. Internships might be available as well in summer 2019.
The group of Prof. Gonze develops and applies first-principles computational approaches for the study of high-technology materials, especially energy-oriented ones. The research will focus on the effects of electron-vibration interaction: supraconductivity (e.g. under high-pressure), carrier mobility, polaron formation, thermoelectricity, photoluminescence ... and will involve code developments in the frame of the international ABINIT project (www.abinit.org). Prof. Gonze has a very large network of international collaborators either contributing to ABINIT or within the European Theoretical Spectroscopy facility (www.etsf.eu). Synergies with other Skoltech faculty members as well as with the Gonze group at UCLouvain, Belgium (perso.uclouvain.be/xavier.gonze) are expected.
HOW TO APPLY (PhDs):
Candidates should hold (or be about to receive) a master’s degree in Physics, Materials Science, or a related area. Good knowledge of quantum mechanics is expected. Candidates who have interest in writing computer code are preferred. Please apply to Skoltech Materials Science and Engineering PhD program, http://www.skoltech.ru/en/apply/phd-programs, before 21 April 2019, and also send your CV (pdf) as well as a brief motivation letter to [email protected]. PhDs will also have an additional promotor from the Center of Energy Science and Technology crei.skoltech.ru/cest/people.
HOW TO APPLY (Postdoc):
The postdoctoral position is a one-year contract, renewable upon availability of funds. Applicants should send their CV (pdf) as well as a brief motivation letter and a brief description of their coding skills and scientific achievements, to [email protected] before 15 May 2019. They should also arrange for two letters of recommendation to be sent to the same address.
Skoltech provides internationally competitive conditions, excellent salaries and medical insurance, and state of the art research conditions and environment.
