(http://dipc.ehu.es/arubio) The research projects will directly address fundamental problems related to the characterization of the electronic properties of complex systems. Topics to be addressed are: * Theoretical description of charge transport in molecular systems * Quantum dots and nanotubes for quantum information applications. * Nanostructured materials for photovoltaic devices * Postdoc position on applications to complex systems with biological interest: Our purpose is to understand the specific process of light emission by the chromophore. This will allow us to extract information about its “in-vivo” conformation and how its environment, inside the protein, leads to changes in the emission properties (color and intensity). The latter problem suggests the investigation of new ideas beyond present TDDFT/QM/MM implementations. Our last objective is to pave the way for a completely new “divide and conquer” strategy, with the aim of incorporating the dynamical coupling between the optically active part of the protein, the protein itself, and the surroundings (solvent, substratum, etc.) The work will be conducted in close relation with the theoretical groups of the NANOQUANTA network of Excellence (www.nanoquanta.eu) as well as within the global framework of the European Theoretical Spectroscopy Facility (ETSF) (http://etsf.eu) Applicants must have, or expect to obtain before the start of the work, a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline. A strong background in theoretical condensed matter science, chemistry or biology and experience with electronic structure methods are essential, and a knowledge of bio-materials or biophysics is desirable. Good knowledge and experience with DFT as well as in the development and implementation of numerical approaches are highly appreciated. We consider applications until the positions are filled.
