Postdoc Position in Electronic Structure of Heterogeneous Interfaces
A postdoc position is available in the group of Prof. Zhenfei Liu (https://liugroupwsu.weebly.com/) at Wayne State University (Detroit, USA). This position focuses on the quasiparticle and optical properties of nanostructured heterogeneous interfaces, such as those formed between molecules and metal or semiconductor substrates. This postdoc will help develop accurate and efficient electronic structure methods such as novel density functionals and/or GW-BSE based approaches for the aforementioned properties, and validate these methods via applications to experimentally relevant systems that are of significance in energy conversion. The initial term is two years and the position is renewable subject to the availability of funding and mutual agreement. Consideration of candidates will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
Preferred qualifications:
(1) Ph.D. in chemistry, physics, materials science, or a closely related discipline;
(2) Sufficient knowledge of density functional theory and/or many-body perturbation theory such as GW-BSE;
(3) Expertise in large-scale first-principles calculations of condensed phase systems, evidenced by peer-reviewed publications;
(4) Prior working experience in high-performance computing systems;
(5) Basic coding ability with FORTRAN and/or Python.
To apply, please send a CV and a brief cover letter to Prof. Zhenfei Liu (zfliu@wayne.edu), and arrange three recommendation letters directly sent to Prof. Zhenfei Liu via email.
