At Linköping University we embrace innovative thinking. Constantly challenging ourselves has been our strongest motivator ever since we opened our doors in 1975. We are driven by seeking answers beyond the traditional and across subject boundaries. If you are too, we would like to see you at our university. Together we can find solutions to the challenges of the day.

The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology conducts research and offers education at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Research, the predominant activity, is often done in collaboration with corporate and international partners. We are one of the university's largest, oldest and most well known departments, encompassing five interacting scientific fields: biology, chemistry, material physics, applied physics and theory and modelling.

LINKÖPING UNIVERSITY
Hereby advertises a position as

Postdoctor in computational chemistry
formally based at the division of chemistry, department of physics, chemistry and biology (IFM).

Duties
A Postdoc will essentially carry out research. The position may also involve teaching, but during no more than a fifth of work time.

This position concerns research with focus on computational chemistry studies of chemical vapor deposition. As the first component of the investigations, modelling using molecular and periodic quantum-chemical computations will be performed. The second component concerns development of computer codes for simulations of thermodynamic equilibria and applications thereof. The third component involves development of methods and applications of chemical kinetic simulations for surface reactions. Also Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation studies may be performed. The research topic is studies of CVD at low temperatures for group III nitrides and of similar chemical processes for other inorganic semiconductor or insulator materials, involving precursor design, phase diagram computations and kinetic simulations. The employee is expected to do science and develop the research area, and to participate in the supervision of PhD and undergraduate students. Some teaching may be part of the position. An important part of the work is the dissemination of the research by publication in internationally renowned journals and by presentations at scientific conferences. The research will be performed in cooperation with colleagues within the experimental as well as the theoretical research areas.

Qualifications
The position requires a doctorate or an equivalent degree from a foreign university. The doctorate shall have been obtained no longer than three years before the expiration date of the application.

The PhD exam should be within the scientific area of physical chemistry with emphasis on computational chemistry or similar, with documented experience of quantum-chemical computations. Education within the CVD areas is desirable. We would like to see that you have documented experience also of the theoretical studies as described in the latter two components listed above. Experience of quantum-chemical studies of surface reactions at inorganic semiconductor or insulator materials is a merit, as is experience of teaching physical chemistry courses.

Appointment time
Two years. The appointment can be renewed if there are special reasons.

Starting date
By agreement.

Salary
The University applies individual salary scales adapted to the experience of the employee and to the labour market.
