PhD: Advanced DFT for Spin-Controlled Light & Conductance

The University of Manchester; Manchester; Sur place; GBP 17 000 - 21 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

The University of Manchester offers a research PhD position focused on developing an advanced density functional approximation (DFA) for organic conjugated systems with magnetism. You will investigate how spin can control light emission or electronic conductance, contributing to a dual award program with Peking University.

UK and international applicants are welcome, with funding and eligibility information on the dedicated program page.

Qualifications

• Interest in density functional theory for electronic structure.
• Experience with modeling organic conjugated systems is advantageous.
• Ability to interpret computational results and compare with experimental data.

Responsabilités

• Develop an advanced DFA with enhanced accuracy for challenging systems.
• Apply the DFA to study spin control of light emission or electric conductance.
