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.

Postdoctoral position in the field of organic semiconductors

The research group of Prof. A. Köhn at the Institute for Theoretical Chemistry, University of Stuttgart invites applications for a

postdoctoral researcher position (full time, payment according to E13/TV-L, fixed-term contract for 18 months)

to support our newly initiated project “Quantum chemical investigations of interactions and transfer processes at interfaces“. The project is part of the collaborative research project “Design principles of organic electronics: Heterogenities in volume phase and at interfaces” funded by the BMBF (Federal ministry of education and research). We look for an experienced researcher with a strong background in computational solid state or materials science to complete our team at the InnovationLab in Heidelberg. Workplace will be at the InnovationLab in Heidelberg (close to main station) to enhance interaction with experimental groups located there.

A successful candidate

  • should hold a PhD in either chemistry, physics, materials science or a closely related field;
  • should have a strong expertise in applying electronic structure computations with periodic boundary conditions (e.g. VASP program package);
  • should be an excellent team player and have a strong ability to plan and conduct independent research;
  • should have a very good command of the English language both spoken and written.

We offer a stimulating research environment with strong interdisciplinary interactions with other research groups ranging from chemical synthesis to device engineering. Visits to national and international scientific meetings can also be funded.

The University of Stuttgart strives to enhance the proportion of women in research and science and explicitly invites female candidates to apply. Handicapped persons will be given priority if equally qualified.

Applications (including a cover letter, CV, summary of previous research projects and an outlook on own future research interests, copies of academic certificates, letters of reference) should be sent to the address given below (email preferred). Please refer to the ID C01-2016. This call remains open until February 29, 2016.
