The Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Bhopal is an autonomous public research university in Bhauri, Bhopal district, Madhya Pradesh, India.
Project Description
The project involves the development of a comprehensive toolkit for computer simulations of photo-induced phenomena based on the combination of two excited-state dynamics approaches ab initio techniques (based on TDDFT), and open quantum system approaches (based on simple models).
Target applications shall include solar energy conversion (photovoltaics, water-splitting catalysts, solar fuels, etc.), optoelectronic materials, photochemistry, and photobiology.
Qualifications
Ph.D. in Computational Chemistry/ Computational Quantum Physics/ Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics with a good academic record. Experience with DFT/ TDDFT codes, classical/ ab initio MD, excited-state dynamics (surface hopping/ Ehrenfest dynamics), open quantum systems, energy transport, photo-physics.
