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.

Physics Department University of Rome Tor Vergata - January-February 2024 Start Date
Are you interested in a Post-doc position in theoretical/computational condensed matter physics/materials science?
Consider to join us at the University of Rome Tor Vergata to focus your research activity in the field of electronic structure simulations of novel semiconducting 2D/layered materials for electronic and opto-electronic applications.
Research Topic: Atom-to-device simulation of next-generation optoelectronic devices based on novel semiconducting 2D/layered materials
Aim of the project is i) to focus on an accurate microscopic description of the electronic and opto-electronic excitations of different novel semiconducting and 2D materials using cutting-edge state-of-the-art theoretical and computational methods by taking advantage of large-scale codes/simulations on HPC platforms ii) to incorporate relevant aspects described at ab-initio atomistic level (from DFT to excited-states MBPT approaches) into mesoscopic device simulation models in order to improve their accuracy and predictivity. This will be implemented by a single- or multi-step parametric multiscale approach for the definition of the necessary device level models, where suitable, or by a concurrent approach.
Activity will be developed within the “Multiscale simulation of advanced nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices based on novel materials” Spoke 6 - Multiscale Modelling & Engineering Applications which aims to create and simulate electronic and optoelectronic devices using innovative materials and transport mechanisms. Its purpose is to propose and develop potential technological options for the Semiconductor Industry's next-generation optoelectronic, electronics, and energy harvesting applications. To achieve this objective, the project will extensively use powerful numerical tools, specifically multi-scale simulations, which span from the atomic level to device and circuit level of abstractions.
To achieve these goals, the project will utilize accurate DFT and MBPT calculations to evaluate electronic and optical properties of the semiconducting nanostructures and novel 2D materials, extracting important material parameters, which will be exploited at the device level of abstraction in order to evaluate the main figure of merits of the devices based on these novel materials.
