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.
Development of solid state electron transport in ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The Army Research Laboratory has one immediate postdoctoral fellow opening in the area of modelling of solid state electron transport. The position will be located at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, MD.
The successful candidate will work on projects in the area of method development and applications of computational modeling to electron transport across material interfaces. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in development and validation of electronic structure (DFT/DFTB) modeling of electron transport.
The project will primarily focus on method development and implementation, but will also involve application of the existing DFT/DFTB software. Good working knowledge of DFT/DFTB modelling software (especially CP2K, but also VASP, QE, g09 or similar). Due to the collaborative nature of the project excellent communication and collaboration skills are essential.
Applicants should have Ph.D. in electrical engineering or computational chemistry, chemical physics, materials science, or a related discipline.
Applicants should submit, via e-mail to Dr. B. Christopher Rinderspacher ([email protected]) a cover letter with a description of their research experience and interests, full CV that includes a list of publications and detailed summary of computational chemistry and programming skills. The names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers of three references should also be provided.
The appointment is for up to three years (renewable annually).
