One Ph.D position is open for ab-initio molecular modelling of bimetallic Au-Pd nanoparticles under reactive gas.
The ambition of the proposed thesis is to identify, on the one hand, the structure and the chemical order of surface nanoalloys in the presence of the adsorbate and on the other hand, to study their reactivity. To this aim, a multi-scale approach based on the combination of Monte Carlo simulation on rigid lattice and atomistic thermodynamics models both based on DFT calculations will be used.
Candidates with Master degree in Chemistry, Physics, Physical-Chemistry, Materials Science Catalysis and motivated by computational chemistry applied to catalysis are invited to send a letter of motivation, CV and 2 letters of recommendation to the contact address.
