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.

The main focus of the project will be to study optical and topological properties in emerging nanomaterials.

Candidates should have experience in condensed-matter theory and first-principles computational physics and material science. They should have good programming and parallel computing skills. Experience in working with ab initio codes, such as VASP, Quantum Espresso, and BerkeleyGW, will be a plus.

 

Basic qualification

Ph.D. (or equivalent foreign degree) in physics, materials science, physical chemistry, or related field at the time of application.

 

Position Availability

As soon as possible after the initial review of applications.

 

Duration of the Position

The position is initially for one year, with the possibility of renewal for the second and third years.

 

Documents:
