Albert-Ludwig University of Freiburg








In principle, full-time positions may be split into two or more part-time positions, provided that there are no bureaucratic or legal obstacles. Preference will be given to severely disabled applicants in the case of equal qualifications. The department offering the position is liable for the content of this job posting.  The human resources department of the administrative board is in charge of the employment process. The FRIAS School of Soft Matter Research invites applications for
POST: Post-doc position
Fulltime position, start date: immediately in the field of theoretical physics or chemistry, specifically ultrafast dynamics and relaxation processes of large molecules, biological complexes and semiconductors. The precise topics will depend on the candidate's background and qualifications.
Possible topics include:
Computational biophysics, in particular simulation of protein folding and aggregation kinetics, lipid-protein complexes and antibody interactions and how they can be probed by novel multidimensional spectroscopy ranging from the infrared to the ultraviolet.
The design of new nonlinear optical techniques by integration of quantum information concepts and quantum states of the radiation field for the study of energy and charge transport in photosynthetic and artificial light harvesting complexes.
Developing and applying time-dependent density functional, nonequilibrium Green’s function techniques and exciton models for computing electronic excitations of molecular assemblies, light harvesting complexes and current-carrying molecules. The interplay of photon and matter entanglement will be investigated.
Initially the position is available for one year with a possible extension to a second year subject to the availability of funds. The research will be conducted at FRIAS, combined with visits to UC Irvine, California. It will be supervised by the External Senior FRIAS Fellow Professor Shaul Mukamel from UC Irvine in collaboration with other faculty of FRIAS.
