Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
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 position at the University of Twente, Ne ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The group "Electronic excitations in light-converting systems" at the University of Twente (UT) is looking for a postdoc interested in electronic structure theory methods, in particular density functional theory and Green’s function-based many-body perturbation theory. The goal of this project is to develop methods that allow for an accurate calculation of charged excitations within the framework of Kohn-Sham density functional theory, i.e., at moderate computational cost. These methods will be applicable to solids, in particular the halide perovskites in which spin-orbit coupling plays an important role.
We want you to play a key role in this ambitious project in an inspiring, international work environment. We provide excellent mentorship and a stimulating, modern research environment with world-class research facilities. You will have an employment contract for the duration of 2 years, and you are eligible for all employee benefits the UT offers.
Your profile
You are enthusiastic, and highly motivated to do research, and have a PhD in physics, theoretical chemistry or a closely related discipline. A background in electronic structure theory is required and strong programming skills are essential. Last but not least, you have strong communication skills, including fluency in written and spoken English, and do not shy away from intensive communication with international collaborators from experiment and theory alike.
If interested, please send a short motivation letter (half a page) describing your research interests and why you are applying for this positions and a detailed CV including a list of your publications to [email protected]. Please, also arrange for one recommendation letter to be sent to the same email address.
For more information about the position, do not hesitate to contact Dr. Linn Leppert ([email protected]).
