浦項科技大學(浦項工科大學,浦項理工大學)(Pohang University of Science and Technology),簡稱POSTECH,成立于1986年,是韓國第一所研究導向型大學,在短暫的20余年的時間里迅猛發展,以“提供最好的教育,進行最尖端的科學研究,服務國家乃至全世界”為其辦學理念,如今已發展成為了世界頂尖的研究導向型科技大學。目前在校生規模3000人,訪問學者和研究員100人,教授250名。全校校園面積165公頃,位于韓國東南的一個沿海城市,設施一流。浦項科技大學是目前韓國工科實力最強的大學之一,為環太平洋大學聯盟成員。
We announce position openings up to two postdoc researchers in the computational condensed matter, especially for correlated systems and high-pressure physics. The projects will be lead by Professor Ji Hoon Shim (POSTECH, republic of Korea, http://dmft.postech.ac.kr/) and Duck Young Kim (HPSTAR, China, http://hpstar.ac.cn/), jointly. Successful applicants will have ample opportunity to work at both research bodies in Korea and China to collaborate with in-house experimentalists as well as to have full access to computational research resources of both groups.
1) correlated materials study: We study strongly correlated electron system covering heavy fermion, transition metal compounds, as well as molecular orbital system. Using density function theory combined with many body physics, we investigate the correlated electron phenomena in the change of pressure, temperature, doping, Hund's coupling etc.
2) high-pressure physics We study materials under high pressure including structural phase transition, physical property change of materials. We have many collaborators in experiments who can synthesize/measure the computationally predicted materials.
We are searching for motivated independent researchers in the field of computational physics, chemistry, and materials science.
60 M ~ 65 M KRW (approximately 31k ~ 34k RMB, dependent on skills and experience)
Mainly at POSTECH, south Korea
Candidates should send a single pdf file including a cover letter, CV with a list of publications, research plan (within 3 pages), and contact information of at least three potential references. Please submit the applications to duckyoung.kim@hpstar.ac.cn.
