Computational Nanotechnology Lab at Michigan State University

Graduate Research Associates in Computational Nanotechnology

The Computational Nanotechnology Lab at Michigan State University (http://www.pa.msu.edu/~tomanek/CNL.html) has openings for motivated graduate students interested in Computational Nanotechnology. Expected are a solid background in Physics, in particular Condensed Matter Physics, ability to write original computer code in FORTRAN, and good communication skills.


Postdoctoral Associate in Computational Nanotechnology

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Computational Nanotechnology Lab at Michigan State University (http://www.pa.msu.edu/~tomanek/CNL.html) in conjunction with the NSF-NSEC Center for High-Rate Nanomanufacturing. The successful applicant will have a strong background in Computational Condensed Matter Physics, demonstrate capability to develop original computer code and maintain software written in FORTRAN. Expected are good communication skills and a successful research track record in predictive electronic structure, quantum transport, and molecular dynamics simulations based on density functional theory or equivalent. As a proof of computational skills, each candidate must submit a numerical solution of the simple problem in Atomic Physics, posted HERE. The position is available immediately.

Applicants should email their

to tomanek@pa.msu.edu. He/she should also arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to Prof. David Tomanek, Physics and Astronomy Department, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824-2320, USA.
