We are looking for scientists from physics, chemistry, or materials science, in the fields of theoretical solid-state physics, electronic-structure calculation by ab-initio density functional theory, atomistic modelling and numerical computer simulation of materials. The research projects include the following material systems and properties: 1. Electronic structure of oxide materials for photovoltaic devices (reference number 2685). 2. Electronic transport in electroceramic thin-film systems for data-storage devices (reference number 2695). 3. Multiscale modelling of ferroelectric materials for sensor and actuator devices, or Ab-initio thermodynamics and atomistic simulation of metal alloys for microelectronic devices (code number 2699). The option for preparing a PhD thesis on the research topic is provided. Applicants should have a PhD degree, or an academic degree equivalent to a German University's diploma or master degree to be eligible for a PhD program. Scientific curiosity, ability for team work, knowledge in theoretical materials physics or chemistry, and in numerical computer simulation are expected. Initially the positions are temporary for two years. The employment, salary, and social security will be according to the German federal employment contract system (TVöD). The Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials is one of 58 research institutes of the Fraunhofer Society (FhG) in Germany. As a leading organisation for application-oriented research in Europe, the FhG offers challenging research activities to well trained and engaged scientists. The city of Freiburg provides a very pleasant and stimulating atmosphere for working and living, with its internationally well-known Albert-Ludwig University and a broad variety of scientific and cultural activities, the beautiful location at the rim of the Black Forest in the south-west of Germany, near to both Switzerland and France.
