1 PhD scholarship in “Uncovering Quantum Magnetism in NanoGraphenes”
We are looking for highly motivated individuals with a keen interest in computer modelling and quantum technologies. All candidates must have proof of a concluded Master degree in Chemistry, Physics or equivalent by 18/10/2019 from Portugal or any other European country. In addition, candidates with degrees with automatic degree accreditation by the Portuguese authorities will also be considered eligible.
The chosen candidate will apply for a scholarship in quantum technologies coordinated by Manuel Melle-Franco (CICECO) and Joaquin Fernandez-Rossier (INL) within the Quantum Portugal Initiative. The Quantum Portugal Initiative offers fully funded, four years fellowships including tuition fees, during which the student will be enrolled in a doctoral program in chemistry, condensed matter physics or equivalent depending on his/her background.
The chosen candidate will work in CICECO at the University of Aveiro and at the Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) in Braga, Portugal, in addition to several months abroad. The research will be devoted to deepening the understanding of novel magnetic nanographenes [1-2], by using and developing existing and new computational and theoretical tools [3].
Direct experience in quantum chemistry and/or computational physics is not required, however, in that case, other means to assess the aptitude of the applicant for the fellowship should be provided.
For any doubt or queries, formal or informal, you may contact Manuel Melle-Franco by email (manuelmelle.group “AT” gmail.com)
