Beijing General Research Institute of Nonferrous Metals is seeking a highly motivated post-doc with strong background in computational modeling of optoelectronic and energy conversion materials.

The positions will be located in the Shengbai Zhang’s research group in Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Troy, NY, US. The candidate to this position will be supervised by Professor Shengbai Zhang and be engaged in research involving the theoretical and computational modeling of the materials related to optoelectronic engineering [including graphene and other two-dimensional (2D) materials], materials for energy conversion and storage, and new materials which have important potential applications. The employed methods will be mainly rooted onto DFT, plane-wave pseudopotential approaches and DFT-based molecular dynamics.

Chinese citizen is preferred. Salary will be about 300,000 Chinese Yuan/year (about $46,000/year) up to two years.
