Opening - Device Modeling


RESEARCH POSITIONS AT THE GRADUATE AND POST-DOC LEVELS are immediately available in the Modeling Research Unit (DAIMON Group) at the Institute for Nanostructured Materials (ISMN) of the National Research Council (CNR), Bologna, Italy.
Our research is focused on the application of advanced simulation techniques to the study of materials, processes and devices for organic and hybrid electronics and optoelectronics. The modeling research unit works in tight collaboration with the experimental groups, led by Dr. Michele Muccini, at the ISMN Bologna and with industry leaders involved in the development of devices for organic photonics (OLEDs, OLETs, bio-organic devices) and organic photovoltaics (OPV).
At the moment, we consider applications for research positions focusing on advanced device modeling techniques based on finite element techniques and extended drift-diffusion models.
Enquiries are encouraged from applicants with a strong background in scientific computing and numerical simulation techniques in device modeling, experience with consolidated TCAD/modeling packages (Silvaco TCAD, Synopsys Sentaurus, Comsol modules, etc.) and familiarity with the Unix/Linux environment and experience in programming (Fortran, C/C++, Java, Python). Experience with high-performance computing facilities and parallel programming is preferred.
Enquiries should be addressed to:
