A postdoctoral position is available at CEA-Grenoble, France, to work on the theoretical modelling of novel perovskite-based photovoltaic materials.

We are looking for a talented individual who can contribute to the theoretical search for, and understanding of, novel materials for photovoltaics. The successful candidate will develop descriptors related to the efficiency of hybrid perovskites solar cells and perform a large-scale computational screening, with the aim of finding new and efficient lead-free materials. This project will be conducted in close collaboration with experimental groups at INES, France.

The materials modelling team in Grenoble comprises six other scientists, with strong connections to experimental and theoretical groups worldwide. More information about our group can be found at:
