RMIT: Topological Charge Transport

Application close 14 July 2019

Opportunity exists for a researcher with experience in theoretical and/or computational models of charge transport and/or topological materials. The academic level A or B (depending on experience) fellow will be working with FLEET Chief Investigator Professor Jared Cole at RMIT. The successful candidate will be expected to:

  • Perform high quality and creative research
  • Publish research outcomes in high-impact peer-reviewed journals, contribute to high-profile conferences and workshops
  • Provide advice to graduates and undergraduate research students
  • Work collaboratively with the FLEET network and the RMIT Theoretical Chemical and Quantum Physics (TCQP) research group

What we are looking for:

    • PhD in theoretical or computational physics, materials engineering, applied mathematics or similarly relevant discipline
    • Demonstrated experience in one or more of the following areas:
      • Non-equilibrium Greens function or other methods for modelling charge or spin transport;
      • Tight-binding or effective models of nanoscale or atomically thin materials;
      • Theoretical or computational models of the topological properties of materials or devices.
    • Demonstrated ability to define, investigate and solve complex problems in theoretical physics and data analysis using various techniques and approaches as required
    • High level skills in mathematical and/or computational modelling.

APPLY NOW. Applications close 14 July 2019.
