Postdoc position in Condensed Matter Physics

We are excited to announce the availability of a postdoc position in Condensed Matter Theory in the Physics Department of the University of Regensburg. The position is hosted by the Spintronic Research Group:

https://www.uni-regensburg.de/physics/fabian/spintronics/index.html

The research project focuses on modeling and DFT simulations of spin-orbit torques in magnetic 2D materials, as part of an EU-wide consortium.

The applicants should have a PhD degree in theoretical condensed matter physics, preferably with expertise in first-principles methods.

We look forward to welcoming a dedicated and enthusiastic researcher to contribute to our vibrant research environment. We welcome applications from individuals of diverse gender and race backgrounds.   

The cover letter and supporting documents (CV, contact details of two or three referees) should be addressed to Jaroslav Fabian at [email protected].

Applications will be considered until the position is filled.  

The University of Regensburg is located in the picturesque city of Regensburg (Bavaria, Germany), whose UNESCO World Heritage status adds to the allure of a unique blend of academic excellence in a culturally rich and visually captivating environment.

Fabian's group conducts research in condensed matter theory, with a primary emphasis on advancing the field of spintronics and exploring the physics of two-dimensional (2D) materials. The work of the group focuses on the fundamental aspects of the electronic structure, transport, optics, magnetism, and superconductivity, employing modern first principles methodologies as well as phenomenological modeling.
