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.
Postdoc: MOF materials for the photocatalytic co ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
A postdoctoral position is available in the group led by Professor Guillaume Maurin (https://scholar.google.fr/citations?hl=fr&user=QNfwyjgAAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate) at the University of Montpellier.
The H2020 EU collaborative METHASOL project brings together state-of-the-art predictive computational chemistry methods, Metal Organic Framework (MOF) materials synthesis and characterizationn an catalytic testing through a collaboration between research groups at various EU universities.
The role of the postdoc on this challenging and topical project will focus on the development and application of Time-Dependent DFT to gain in-depth understanding of the electronic properties of the MOFs and the microscopic mechanisms at their origin of their outstanding photocatalytic performance for CO2 conversion. From this unprecedented understanding, we will aim to establish structure-activity relationships to guide the experimentalist towards MOFs with even better performance.
The candidate should have experience with time-dependent DFT and ab initio molecular dynamics. Experience in the application of these first-principle methods to material science is welcome. (Optional) Programming skills and knowledge on Machine Learning are appreciated.
Position is available for 1 year and 1 year extension.Starting date is flexible.
Interested candidates should contact Prof. Guillaume Maurin by email ([email protected]).
