Research Fellow in the Theory of Quantum Transport (108741-0724)

For informal enquiries, please contact Hatef Sadeghi (Professor) at Hatef.Sadeghi@warwick.ac.uk.

This full-time fixed term post is available within the Quantum Device Modelling group for two years with a possibility to extend it further until 31 March 2027.

You will undertake research on European Innovation Council (EIC) Pathfinder Open project “ATYPIQUAL” to assist the Principal Investigator and project partners in the successful execution of the project. ATYPIQUAL’s main aim is to unveil a room temperature quantum technology platform based on a novel generation of atomically precise graphene nanoribbons. You will be based at the University of Warwick and be involved in a highly interdisciplinary consortium with experimental collaborators from academia and industry including EMPA in Switzerland, TU Delft in the Netherlands, TU Dresden in Germany, and CNRS and THALES in France.

You will undertake independent and collaborative research on the theory and modelling of electronic and magnetic properties of graphene nanoribbons, quantum transport through them between electrodes, and will be expected to write up your research for publication. You will be expected to deal with any management/administration matters that may arise from the project and produce and present regular project reports ensuring that the project objectives and deadlines are met. You will be expected to co-supervise PhD and MSc students within the group.

We will consider applications for employment on a part-time or other flexible working basis, even where a position is advertised as full-time, unless there are operational or other objective reasons why it is not possible to do so.
