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 Computational Materials (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
A postdoctoral position is available immediately, with initial appointment up to August 31, 2016 and renewable based upon funding and performance. The position is at Arkansas State University working with Dr. Koushik Biswas.
Candidates with strong background and experience in first-principles electronic structure methods and programming experience are encouraged to apply. The work will involve the study of complex halides, oxides, and chalcogenides for primary application in radiation detection. Radiation detectors constitute both semiconductors and scintillators. Other opto-electronic applications are also of interest.
A PhD in Physics or closely related field is required. Experience with first-principles calculations, strong background in condensed matter physics will be necessary. Good oral and written communication skill is also required.
Interested applicants should attach the following: (1) a cover letter highlighting your experience and its potential overlap with work in radiation detection materials, and (2) a complete CV with publication and presentation details and the names and contact information of three references.
For application please follow: http://www.astate.edu/jobs/ (Click on “External Applications” link and search for Position Number P00313.
Application submission will close January 5, 2016.
