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.
Joint Postdoctoral Positions in Condensed Matter ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
Outstanding candidates to fill several postdoctoral positions are sought in the field of electronic structure theory of solids/Condensed Matter Theory as joint positions between Shenzhen University (Prof. Xiuwen Zhang) and University of Colorado at Boulder (Prof. Alex Zunger) and are for a period of 2 years (one year in each institute). Research focal areas include Materials by Design, Quantum Materials (Mott physics; Rashba effects; Topological matter; spintronics), novel semiconductors, and nanoscience. See (http://www.colorado.edu/zunger-materials-by-design).
Candidates must have a doctoral degree in physics, materials science, or related areas. Strong background in the practice of first-principles calculations and theoretical modeling is preferred. Applications are accepted now and should be emailed to Prof. Xiuwen Zhang at [email protected] and Prof. Alex Zunger at [email protected], including CV and representative achievements in the last 5 years.
The basic compensation for these positions is about 300k RMB (~ 44k USD, at current exchange rates) per year. Qualified candidates who continue working in Shenzhen for a longer term after the 2-year period of postdoctoral research, can also receive a bonus package (tax free) totaling 1.6 million RMB (~ 232k USD), to be distributed annually over 5 years.
