The department of Physics is seeking two Doctoral Researchers for the project ''Efficient quantum materials simulations'' (EffQSim), funded by the Jane and Aatos Erkko foundation and supervised by Senior Lecturer Riku Tuovinen in the research group Non-equilibrium quantum materials at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. The positions will start on the 1st September 2024, or as agreed, for a fixed term of 4 years.
The EffQSim project's main goal is to establish a unified, efficient, and accurate computational framework to explore next-generation quantum materials. Recent experimental advances have spurred demand for computational studies of materials with atomic-scale and femtosecond resolution. Addressing the complex interactions of electrons and bosons, the project develops tools for quantum materials simulations to tackle problems like energy transfer and heat dissipation. This is achieved via the non-equilibrium Green's function theory for simulating many-body dynamics, overcoming its computational challenges with modern, linear-scaling algorithms. This method will map electrical properties of two-dimensional materials and model light-matter interaction in nanojunctions, extending both the understanding and methodology of quantum materials research. The project offers possibilities for international collaborations in Poland and Spain.
