A postdoctoral position is available at the University of California, Riverside in the computational materials theory research group of Sinisa Coh, http://coh.ucr.edu

The candidate should hold a Ph.D. in Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry, or a related field.

The candidate is expected to work on a collaborative effort with experimentalists studying light-matter interactions in magnetic materials, such as ultrafast optical spin-transfer torque, the inverse Faraday effect, and ultrafast magnetization dynamics. Experience with magnetic materials, alloys, disorder, optical response, or high-throughput calculations is preferred but not required.

Applicants should send their CV, a list of 2-3 people willing to write a recommendation letter, as well as a brief description of their research interests to [email protected]

The position start date is flexible. Possibility of doing work remotely during the pandemic.
