Job Summary: Under the direction of a senior faculty member who serves as a mentor for the postdoctoral appointee, The Postdoctoral Fellow provides for an internship and continuation of scholarly activity and research after achieving the Ph.D. or other doctoral degree.

Additional Department Summary: A postdoctoral position in condensed matter theory is available in Wang-Kong Tse's research group at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa. The postdoctoral scientist will carry out theoretical research on transport and many-body effects of low-dimensional systems driven into non-equilibrium conditions. The research activities of the group are broadly concerned with optical, magnetic and non-equilibrium properties of quantum materials and heterostructures, including two-dimensional materials and topological matter. More information about our group can be found at http://tsegroup.ua.edu/.

Required Department Minimum Qualifications: Ph.D. in Physics. Candidates will need to have completed their Ph.D. or have it completed by the start of employment.

Applicants should upload the following documents during the application process: 1. CV (including a publication list and a list of three references) 2. A concise statement of research interest (up to 1 page). Please send email reprints/preprints of two or three selected publications to [email protected] with the subject line “CMT Post-Doc Application.” Applicants should also arrange for three confidential recommendation letters to be sent separately to [email protected].

Skills and Knowledge: The successful candidate will have prior experience in quantum many-body theoretical techniques and proficient numerical skills using one of the standard programming languages.

Preferred Qualifications: Knowledge and experience with using Green's function techniques in many-body condensed matter theory. Experience with non-equilibrium systems and Floquet physics is highly desirable.
