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 in “Multi-scale atomistic sim ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
A postdoc position in atomistic simulations is immediately available in a theory group “Atomistic Simulations of Materials” (Group Leader Dr. Arkady Krasheninnikov) at the Institute of Ion Beam Physics and Materials Research, the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Germany.
Two-dimensional (2D) inorganic materials have unique electronic and optical properties, which can further be tuned using ion beams. However, the interaction of ions, especially highly-charged and swift heavy ions with such systems is not fully understood. ln the project "Functionalization of Ultrathin MoS2 by Defect Engineering" funded by DFG, we are going to study the effects of ion irradiation on 2D transition metal dichalcogenides with the main focus on MoS2. We will also investigate how irradiation-induced defects could be used to engineer the properties of these materials. The project is going to be carried out in close collaboration with several experimental groups, so that it will give a unique opportunity to carry out a theoretical research in a 'hot' area and immediately get access to unpublished experimental data.
