The theory group led by Dr. Erik van Loon at Lund University, Sweden is looking to hire a postdoctoral researcher on altermagnetism. The group's research is focused on correlated materials and their collective excitations, described using electronic structure and dynamical mean-field theory approaches. This project will use these methods to describe altermagnets, a recently discovered new class of magnetic materials. The research will take place at the Division of Mathematical Physics, Department of Physics and collaboration with the NanoLund research area and the Lund Institute of Advanced Neutron and X-Ray science are expected.
This recruitment is connected to the Wallenberg Initiative Materials Science for Sustainability (WISE, wise-materials.org). WISE, funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, is the largest-ever investment in materials science in Sweden and will encompass major efforts at Sweden’s foremost universities over the course of 10 years. The vision is a sustainable future through materials science.
The postdoctoral position is for two years. The application deadline is Oct 28, 2024. The full advertisement is available and applications should be submitted via the following website:

#PostDoc
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral position at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. We are seeking highly motivated researchers for a 22-monthsposition.
Research Project
The research project relies on the use/development of advanced HPC ab-initio tools for computational design of novel materials for photocatalytic, photovoltaics and battery applications. Density Functional Theory (DFT), Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT), and Many-Body Perturbation Theory (MBPT) will be adopted to calculate structural, electronic, and primarily optical properties (both linear and nonlinear) of alloys, surfaces, and interfaces.
Qualifications:
PhD in Physics or a closely related field.
Proven expertise in ab-initio calculations of electronic and optical properties of solids, surfaces, and low-dimensional systems.
Strong mathematical and programming skills.
Preference will be given to researchers already in Europe or who can quickly obtain a residence permit in order to start the position possibly by the end of year.
Application Process:
We strongly encourage interested candidates to submit an Expression of Interest to Professor Ivan Marri (marri@unimore.it) and Professor Elena Degoli (elena.degoli@unimore.it). Your application should include:
A detailed CV with a list of publications.
A comprehensive denoscription of your scientific and computational background.
Contact information for at least one referee.
About UNIMORE:
UNIMORE boasts over 27,000 students and is located in the vibrant cities of Modena and Reggio Emilia, renowned for their high quality of life. The region surrounding UNIMORE is a hub for technological innovation, making it an ideal environment for cutting-edge research.

#PhD
Dear colleagues,
The newly formed Semiconductors and Microelectronic systems (SAM) group at TU Berlin has 2 open PhD positions in Neuromorphic Computing and Hardware for Artificial Intelligence (AI). We’re seeking passionate, self-motivated, and creative researchers eager to design and develop novel materials and devices for bio-inspired sensing and computing.
Inspired by the biological brain, our group will work on nanoelectronic materials and devices that host an innovative hardware-based AI—**neuromorphic computing**. This approach aims to overcome the limitations of software-based AI, enhancing energy efficiency, miniaturization, privacy, and scalability.
The SAM group is led by Prof. Priyamvada Jadaun, Chair Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at TU Berlin. Prof. Jadaun also holds a Visiting Scholarship at the University of California, Berkeley, USA, and an Affiliate position at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA.
Please forward this opportunity to interested candidates. Application deadline: November 18, 2024.
