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.
PhD Position at University of Freiburg, Germany, ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
Within the Priority Programme 1959 "Manipulation of matter controlled by electric and magnetic fields" funded by the DFG (http://www.fieldsmatter.de) the FMF and project partners are conducting both experimental and theoretical research on the topic
„Processing of magnetic materials enhanced by magnetic or electric fields or currents“.
The objective of this project is to investigate how crystalline structures and chemical orders of ferromagnetic intermetallic compounds can be manipulated by high electromagnetic fields and currents such that uniaxial anisotropic, hard-magnetic crystal phases can be generated in the metallurgical processing. The project partners of the FMF are the “Functional Materials” group at the Technical University of Darmstadt and the “Materials Modeling” group at the Fraunhofer IWM in Freiburg.
The theoretical part of the project at the FMF and Fraunhofer IWM combines atomistic and phenomenological computer simulation methods to investigate atomic diffusion and ordering processes in ferromagnetic intermetallic phases.
For this theoretical task as a PhD work we are looking for a Theoretical Physicist.
As applicant, you have got an academic degree in Physics, which entitles you for PhD admission at the University of Freiburg. You are well trained and skilled in scientific research, highly interested in materials and their properties, preferably already experienced in theoretical solid-state physics and/or computational material simulations, and motivated to collaborate in an interdisciplinary team.
The contract duration for this part-time position (80%) is initially limited to 2 years, with the possibility of an extension. The salary will be determined in accordance with TV-L E13. We are particularly pleased to receive applications from women for the position advertised here.
Please send your application in English including supporting documents citing the reference number 00001133, by 14.08.2020 at the latest. Please send your application to the following address in written or electronic form:
