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 on the theory of the electronic and transport properties of graphene nanostructures synthesized by on-surface chemistry
We are seeking to fill a two years postdoctoral position at the Centro de Física de Materiales (http://cfm.ehu.es) and Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC, http://dipc.ehu.es) to work in collaboration with Prof. Daniel Sánchez-Portal (http://cfm.ehu.es/team/daniel-sanchez-portal/), Prof. Aran Garcia-Lekue (http://www.ikerbasque.net/es/arantzazu-garcia-lekue) and Dr. Peter Koval (http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Peter_Koval2). We are seeking candidates to fill the position as soon as possible.
The work will focus on the theoretical study and simulation of the electronic, transport, optical and magnetic properties of molecular covalent networks synthesized using on-surface chemistry by our experimental colleagues. The studied systems include functionalized and chemically doped graphene nanoribbons, different nanographenes and porous graphene networks, as well as, assemblies of metal-organic molecules. The main tools for our research will be DFT and TDDFT simulations using the SIESTA code (https://departments.icmab.es/leem/siesta/), of which our group is one of the developers, as well as other well-known DFT software packages.
This position is linked to the coordinated project FunMolDev (“Functional Molecular nanostructures for optoelectronic Devices”), where our theory group works in collaboration with four experimental groups doing on-surface synthesis and characterization (using STM/STS, ARPES, transport measurements and near-field optics) and one chemistry group that synthesizes and engineers the precursors. The project is funded by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades.
Please, send your applications to [email protected] or [email protected] before October 31st .
