Open Position

Postdoctoral Researcher Position

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral researcher to join our lab working on cutting-edge projects in spintronics, magnetic materials, and non-volatile memory. This project focuses on developing unconventional computing devices/materials, such as neuromorphic devices based on magnetic skyrmions, ferroelectric properties, vacancy or oxide filaments, and layered van der Waals materials and heterostructures. The initial appointment is for one year, with the possibility of extension depending on the progress and direction of the research.

#1 Postdoctoral Researcher Position in Computational Spin Dynamics and Magnetic Materials 

Responsibilities:

• Perform atomistic spin dynamics simulations based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation using VAMPIRE, UppASD, or related tools.

• Conduct or support first-principles calculations for magnetic exchange interactions, magnetic anisotropy, DMI, and electronic structures using first-principles calculations (VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, or related tools).

• Collaborate with experimental researchers to analyze and interpret magnetic, transport, and microscopy data.

• Prepare manuscripts, reports, and research proposals based on computational and experimental results.

Qualifications:

• A doctoral degree in Physics, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

• Strong background in magnetic (ferroelectric) materials and relevant computational techniques.
