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 @ Nanosurf Lab, Prague, Czech Repub ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
We are looking for talented and motivated students interested in computational solid-state physics and chemistry. The doctoral student will be involved in the research of material properties of low-dimensional molecular systems. The main goal will be a deeper understanding of the processes associated with the formation of low-dimensional molecular systems on solid surfaces and a description of their charge and spin states. We expect tight collaboration with in-house experiments as well as other world-leading experimental laboratories. Namely, theoretical calculations will be performed in close cooperation with experimental studies of novel 1D and 2D molecular systems showing exotic quantum properties. During PhD study, complementary computational methods (DFT, DMRG, QM / MM) will be used in order to describe the studied systems as realistically as possible. The development of new simulation tools within the PhD study is also expected.
Relevant publications:
Nanosurf Lab is an international research group with a strong synergy between theoretical and experimental research. It belongs to the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences located in Prague, Czech Republic. The group has access to a modern HPC computing infrastructure. More information about the group's scientific activities can be found at https://nanosurf.fzu.cz/.
Selected students are expected to engage in international cooperation with leading experimental and theoretical groups in the field. Candidates with experience in numerical calculations of electronic structure based on DFT or other methods are preferred as well as those having knowledge of programming languages. The ability to communicate in English as well as the ability to communicate with members of a multidisciplinary research team is required.
