2012-04-27 11:28 来源: 未知 作者: admin

Employer:Tampere University of Technology (TUT)

Website:http://www.tut.fi/compphys

Location: Department of Physics, P.O. Box 692, Tampere, Finland

Type:Postdoctoral

Posted: April 24, 2012

Expires: May 31, 2012

Requisition number: None

The Materials and Molecular Modeling (M&MM) group in the Tampere University of Technology (TUT), Finland (www.tut.fi/compphys), is looking for talented, inspired and outstanding candidates for post-doctoral fellow and Ph.D. student positions. The M&MM group is a member of the Centre of Excellence for Computational Nanoscience (COMP) at Aalto University School of Science, Helsinki, Finland (www.aalto.fi). COMP’s research strategy is based on the development and application of advanced theoretical and computational methods for condensed-matter and materials physics and chemistry, especially in nanosciences and nanotechnology. COMP has extensive international collaboration networks, strong contacts to experimental activities, both nationally as well as internationally, and a very active interface to applied and industrial research in nanotechnology and materials engineering. Its scientific output and impact are excellent, and in the 2009 Research Assessment Exercise of Aalto School of Science, COMP was recognized as having reached an outstanding international level.

The M&MM group at TUT performs massively-parallel simulations of materials and biomolecules at the atomistic scale using both electronic structure calculations (DFT) and classical molecular mechanics (MM). The general objective our research is to study the detailed atomic structure of a system and its function. The problems involve current technological applications in the fields of materials science, chemistry and biochemistry. Currently, the focus areas are:

- Functional semiconductor materials, especially chalcogenides (DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, Blu-ray Disc, phase-change RAM, conductive-bridging RAM)

- Unconventional glass materials (levitated melts of silicates, phosphates, aluminates)

- Noble metal nanoparticles (Au, Ag, Pd) and chalcogenide nanocystals/particles

The projects will be carried out in close collaborations with our international partners, including Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany), Spring-8 (Japan), IBM Watson Research Center (U.S.A.), Molecular Foundry (LBNL, Berkeley, U.S.A.) and Stanford University (U.S.A.).

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS AND DETAILS

Successful candidates shall have or are close to having an M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related disciplines. Knowledge of computational physics and chemistry software, and programming experience are also desirable. The standard contract periods are 4 years for Ph.D. students and 2 years for post-doctoral researchers, with possibilities for extensions in the latter case. Typical salary ranges (before taxes) at TUT are 2100-2700 euros/month for Ph.D. students and 3400-4000 euros/month for post-doctoral researchers. Full social benefits are included.

HOW TO APPLY

The call is open and the positions can be filled as soon as proper candidates are found. The deadline for the applications is May 31st 2012. Applications should consist of a scientific CV, publication list, the names of at least two referees and, for PhD applicants, the transcripts of studies. Send your application as a single pdf file to:jaakko.akola@tut.fi
