Offer Description The Néel Theory Group (Institut Néel / CNRS) in Grenoble, France, invites applications for a postdoctoral position in the theory of topological states of matter. The successful applicant will work on the development of theories of disordered topological superconductors.
Responsibilities: Simulation and analysis of realistic disordered superconductors lattices using state-of-the-art techniques, such as k.p modelling, quantum field theory, tight-binding methods.
Conceiving, writing and disseminating scientific publications related to the topic of amorphous topological matter.
Mentoring, and collaboration with other group members.
Proactive participation in group meetings and the scientific life of the institute, such as attending seminars.
The Institut NÉEL is a CNRS unit (UPR 2940) under agreement with the University Grenoble Alpes. The laboratory is related to the CNRS Physique. It is located in Grenoble, in the heart of a unique scientific, industrial and cultural environment. It is one of the largest French national research institutes for fundamental research in condensed matter physics enriched by interdisciplinary activities at the interfaces with chemistry, engineering and biology. It consists of 450 employees, including 175 researchers.
The research work will be carried out under the supervision of Adolfo G. Grushin, benefiting from a large pool of local research and with existing international collaborations. The successful applicant will benefit and is expected to contribute to the lively atmosphere of the group as well as partially mentor PhD students.
The postdoc researcher will be integrated into the Condensed Matter Theory group (26 members, including permanent and non-permanent staff) of the Condensed Matter – Low Temperatures (MCBT) department.
Qualifications: We expect the successful candidate to have expertise in the following areas:
Disorder and superconductivity.
Topological phases of matter.
Theoretical modelling of transport properties or optical properties.
Assignments will be carried out within a diversified and collaborative team, with numerous interactions with experimentalists in the field. To achieve this, we are looking for a person with good interpersonal skills, adaptability, team spirit, and an appreciation of collaborative work.
