Ultrafast Laser Nanostructure Shaping: Multi-Scale Modeling

Laboratoire Hubert Curien; Saint-Étienne; Hybride; EUR 28 000 - 34 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

The Hubert Curien Laboratory in Saint-Étienne invites applications for a PhD fellowship on multi-scale modeling of ultrafast laser-driven thermofluid flows for nanostructure reshaping within the ULTraFlow project.

You will develop computational tools coupling ultrafast near-field absorption, heat transfer and phase transitions to predict nanoscale modifications, working with MD and extended CFD methods.

Qualifications

• Strong knowledge in computational fluid dynamics and thermodynamics.
• Experience with programming languages (Python, MATLAB, or C++) and ability to develop and test its own code.
• Proficiency in written and spoken English.
• Background in laser-matter interactions and thermodynamics is a plus.
• Experience with computational tools like OpenFOAM or LAMMPS is a plus, not mandatory.

Responsabilités

• Develop multi-physics tools coupling ultrafast absorption, heat transfer and phase transitions.
• Predict nanoscale surface reshaping under ultrafast laser irradiation.
• Compare continuum and molecular dynamics approaches and assess their limits.
