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.

One postdoctoral position is available in Prof. Yuan Ping’s group at University of California, Santa Cruz:

https://www.chemistry.ucsc.edu/faculty/index.php?uid=yuanping

http://yuanping.chemistry.ucsc.edu/research

The main project is to study charged defects in two-dimensional materials for quantum information applications, in particular, spin and charge dynamics (excited state lifetime and quantum coherence),  defect-phonon and defect-exciton interactions from DFT and many body perturbation theory, based on efficient and scalable numerical techniques as discussed in the review paper: http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2013/cs/c3cs00007a#!divAbstract

Our recent work on this topic can be found: https://journals.aps.org/prmaterials/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevMaterials.1.071001

Other projects within the Ping group's interest can be also supported.

 

QUALIFICATIONS: Candidates with a strong background in condense matter physics/materials chemistry, numerical implementations for first-principles methods, with a Ph.D. in the relevant fields are encouraged to apply.  Preference will be given to candidates who have experience with method development and code implementation on electronic structure theory such as Green’s function based methods (GW/BSE, NEGF, DMFT), TDDFT, ultrafast dynamics for solid state systems.

TO APPLY: Applicants should send their CV, research introduction and contact information for three references to [email protected].  The position will remain open until filled.

 

TERM OF APPOINTMENT: This position is funded for three years, with the possibility of continuation contingent on positive performance review and available funding.

 

 SALARY AND BENIFITS: They are in line with the University of California Standards. More details can be inquired from Yuan Ping  ([email protected]).
