PhD/PostDoc position in DFT/MD+Machine Learning-driven Perovskite device architectures, in ELI ALPS, Szeged, Hungary
A new Research Fellow (i.e., post doc position)/Early stage Researcher (i.e., PhD) position- available in the field of Computational and Applied Materials Science at ELI-ALPS, Szeged, Hungary.
If you are interested, write to mousumi.upadhyaykahaly@eli-alps.hu
We are looking for an enthusiastic researcher with expertise in one or more of the following fields: DFT, TDDFT simulations, Machine Learning, theoretical chemistry simulations, Multi-scale simulations, molecular ultrafast dynamics, strong-field physics. The successful candidate will participate in scientific projects managed by the Computational and Applied Materials Science team members in the Theory & Simulations Group at ELI-ALPS. In addition to his/her contribution to designing, building and commissioning facilities and equipment, the successful candidate is also expected to contribute in user support and user experiments at the beamlines and end-stations, in collaboration with the user teams, and experimentalists.
Our team members are responsible for probing structure and photoresponse in materials through quantum chemistry simulations and understanding of ultrafast electron dynamics, in close collaboration with experiments.
We also provide simulation supports towards user experiments carried in ELI-ALPS.
The duties and responsibilities of the Research Fellow/Early Stage Researcher include but are not limited active participation in the following fields:
