About the position
Researcher (M/F) in Theory and Numerical Simulation
Institution: CNRS
Research Field: Physics
Researcher Profile: First Stage Researcher (R1)
Application Deadline: 14 Oct 2026 - 23:59 (UTC)
Job Status: Full-time
Is the job funded through the EU Research Framework Programme?: Not funded by a EU programme
Is the Job related to staff position within a Research Infrastructure?: No
We are seeking to fill a postdoctoral position on the theoretical treatment of the electronic response of plasmonic doped semiconductor nanoparticles at the CINaM (Centre interdisciplinaire de Nanoscience a Marseille, http://www.cinam.univ-mrs.fr) in the group of Theory and Simulation, with H.-Ch.
The work will focus on the calculation of the electronic response of doped silicon nanoparticles using TDDFT methods.
The position is part of the ANR project DIAAPASON ("Plasmonique quantique à base de nanostructures semiconductrices dopées", https://anr.fr/Projet-ANR-24-CE09-4555).
In this work, we will study the effects of doping on the plasmonic properties of semiconductor nanocrystals and clusters.
Ab initio calculations will be compared, throughout the project, with state-of-the-art experimental results.
We will primarily use Time-Dependent Density-Functional Theory (TDDFT) in its Real-Time formulation.
It will profit from close contact with members of the Theory & Simulation department of the CINaM.
Years of Research Experience: None
The successful candidate will have a PhD in theoretical Physics or Chemistry, a solid background in condensed matter physics and/or quantum chemistry, and ample experience with ab initio / DFT calculations.
Previous coding experience will be an advantage.
