Joint postdoctoral positions (1-2) of Institue of Semiconductors Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOSCAS, Beijing,http://www.semi.ac.cn ) and Material Science Division of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL, Berkeley CA, http://www.lbl.gov ) are now available. These positions are financially supported and officially enrolled by IOSCAS Beijing, while the work site is based in LBNL. The PIs include Prof. Shu-Shen Li (director) of IOSCAS, and Prof. Lin-Wang Wang in LBNL (http://cmsn.lbl.gov/index.php?topic=people ).
The successful candidates are expected to carry out research in one of the following areas:
The candidates are required to have a PhD degree in physics, material sciences or related areas. Experience on electronic structure theories (DFT and beyond), computational simulations of solids, nanostructures and nanodevices is preferred.
The gross salary from IOSCAS is RMB 200,000 (roughly 31,000 USD) per annum, and there is an incentive mechanism with an extra 20% top-up after successful performance review. A bonus based on annual publications will be available. And a monthly stipend from LBNL is negociable for high performance candidates. The positions are available for two years at the initial instance, with the possibility of extension based on mutual agreement.
The start date is immediate. Please send your CV, research statement (1 page) and contact information of 2 academic references, directly to Prof. Xiang-Wei Jiang by email ([email protected] ). The search is open until the positions are filled. Informal inquiry can be made by contacting Prof. Jiang.
