Job offer – theoretical study of electronic and nuclear dynamics
We a seeking for an experience researcher to join the group of Fernando Martín (https://campusys.qui.uam.es/ at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid and IMDEA Nanoscience in framework of the recently awarded Synergy Grant of the European Research Council TOMATTO (the ultimate Time scale of Organic Molecular optoelectronics: the ATTOsecond).
Subject description
The goal of the project is to overcome the femtosecond time-scale bottleneck and get direct information on the early stages of electron and charge transfer generated by visible and ultraviolet light absorption on organic optoelectronic systems, by extending the available theoretical tools of attosecond science beyond the state of the art. The objective is to provide clear-cut movies of electron and charge transfer processes with the ultimate goal of engineering the molecular response to optimize the light driven processes leading to the desired opto-electronic behavior (https://tomatto.eu/).
Position requirements
- A PhD degree in physics or theoretical chemistry or related disciplines.
- Experience in advanced theoretical modelling
- Knowledge of scientific programming languages (e.g., Fortran 90, C, C++, Python, etc).
- Knowledge of quantum mechanics, basic electrodynamics, basic atomic and molecular physics.
- Good oral and written proficiency in English.
- Ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
Main responsibilities
The selected researcher shall cooperate with the SyG team in the development and implementation of the methodology needed to study the electronic transfer processes in the donor-acceptor systems that are being studied within the project. Good and collaborative attitude with other group members is expected.
Instructions on how to apply
Expected start date is October 2023. Only applications submitted through the hosting institution (UAM) electronic submission system can be considered (https://sede.uam.es/sede/piproyectos, job offer reference: PR32/07/2023). Deadline for applications is September 11, 2023.
