A PhD studentship is available in the group of Dr Felix Plasser at
Loughborough University, UK.
Description: Unravelling the electronic structure properties of
functional molecular materials
Functional molecular materials play an important role in modern science
with applications in solar energy conversion, lighting, and data
processing. Nowadays, computer simulations are an indispensable
component in the study of these systems due to constant improvements in
computer power. However, these computations have become so complicated
that it is often a major challenge to make full sense of the results. To
overcome this problem, a versatile computational analysis toolkit has
been developed by Dr Plasser and co-workers, and it is the goal of this
project to apply and further develop these tools. The student working on
this project will develop skills in terms of applying modern quantum
chemistry methods to various molecules of current scientific interest
and will be given the opportunity to turn recently developed methods
into high-impact scientific publications. In addition, programming
skills will be developed, and the student will have the chance to work
in an interdisciplinary setting with inputs from chemistry, physics and
computer science.

Closing date for applications is 15th February.
