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 Condensed Matter and Statistical Physics Group at Theoretical Physics Division, Rudjer Boskovic Institute, Zagreb, Croatia is inviting applications for a postdoctoral position, starting immediately and for the duration of 2 years.

The appointment is associated with the Horizon 2020 FETOPEN project "Reservoir Computing with Real-time Data for future IT (RECORD-IT)".The project, which includes partners from 8 EU countries, focuses on the development of a novel concept of using the reservoir computing for sensing purposes. The concept should be applicable to a broad range of sensing situations.

The work will be done in close collaboration with several experimental groups that are working on a device prototype in the context of ion concentration sensing, using the network of components such as memristors, organic transistors and silicon nanowires.

The theoretical work should deal with the development of the models for sensing reservoir dynamics of various sensor components and development of necessary simulation tools to investigate the information processing capabilities of the device. Both ab-initio (DFT) and semi-empirical approaches will be used to address the complex ion dynamics.

The applicant should have a strong background in theoretical condensed matter physics, material science or chemistry. The previous experience with electronic structure and transport calculations based on density functional theory and/or molecular dynamics stimulation is an advantage.

The gross salary is 32.000 Euros per annum and up depending on the experience.

Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

Additional information: Theoretical Physics Division have recently got HORIZON 2020 EU project RBI-T-Winning (~ 1 mil.Eur) for the period of 3 years with the aim of raising its research profile through the collaboration with four excellent EU institutions: LMU Munich, SISSA Trieste, LPT Orsay and Niels Bohr Institute Kopenhagen by intensive exchange of knowledge and experience which involves staff exchange, lectures, conferences and trainings in which the future postdoc researcher is expected to actively participate.

How to Apply: Interested applicants should send the following: curriculum vitae with publication and presentation details and the names and contact information of 2 references, via e-mail to [email protected].

For further details please contact Prof. Zeljko Crljen, [email protected]
