Italian Institute of Technology invites applications for a postdoctoral position within the Quantum Materials Theory Research Line in Genoa.

We are looking for a motivated candidate with a strong background and a PhD Degree in theoretical/computational condensed matter physics or related disciplines, ability to carry out a project to completion with a degree of independence, interest in collaborating with experimental groups, interest in occasional teaching and strong team-working skills.

Our main interests are in the following fields:

* Phenomenological and microscopic modeling of magnetic/ferroelectric/multiferroic materials, their ultrafast dynamics and domain wall-related phenomena (main tools: Landau theory, model Hamiltonians, DFT, DMFT)

* Frustrated magnetism, non-collinear spin textures, magnetic interactions driven by strong spin-orbit coupling

* Halide perovskites and organic-inorganic hybrid materials for optoelectronics

Interested applicants should submit a CV with a list of publications, contact information of 2 referees and a brief motivation letter + summary of the past research activities to [email protected] quoting “Post doc CB 77164” in the subject of the e-mail.

The position is available immediately.
