Listed below are details of a new Warwick job:

Research Assistant or Research Fellow

Department of Physics

£23,811 - £26,779 pa or £27,578 to £35,938 pa

Fixed Term Contract for 24 Months

A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Physics, University of Warwick, under the supervision of Dr David Quigley.

You will join the molecular simulation group at Warwick to develop models of 2D film growth on metal substrates, directed toward understanding and optimising the growth of graphene and boron nitride monolayers via non-classical mechanisms. The research will be
undertaken in close collaboration with Dr Neil Wilson (microscopy) and Dr Gavin Bell (surface physics) who will provide experimental input to the project.

You will parameterise and construct a Kinetic Monte-Carlo (KMC) model of 2D film growth from ab initio data and/or simulations using accurate semi-empirical potentials. You will identify the rate limiting processes in the diffusion and aggregation of relevant atoms
and clusters on metal surfaces, and characterise their energetics. The resulting model will be used to generate statistics on growth rates, island morphologies and grain sizes, which can be compared directly to experimental data. The research will involve some code
development, and the use of existing packages in a high performance computing environment.

You will be expected to play an active role within the theoretical physics group and within the cross-department interdisciplinary atomic/molecular simulation group at Warwick, attending seminars, assisting with supervision of graduate students and organising
research events and visits. Regular meetings will be held with experimental project partners.

You will have experience in studying the structure and dynamics of solid-state systems using atomistic and/or ab initio simulation methods. Experience with methods for locating and characterising transition states is desirable, as is familiarity with testing and
validation of semi-empirical atomistic potentials. Prior experience of KMC or adaptive KMC simulation methods is highly desirable.

You must be capable of working within a broader research team, demonstrating excellent written and verbal communication skills, and maintaining a current knowledge of the simulation literature. The ability to communicate research to an interdisciplinary audience
will also be required.

Listed below are details of a new Warwick job:

Research Assistant or Research Fellow

Department of Physics

Superconductivity and Magnetism Group

£23,811- £26,779 or £27,578- £35,938 pa

Fixed Term Contract from 20 September 2012 (funding for this project ends on 20 January 2014)

You will work on an EPSRC funded project on single crystal growth at Warwick University. The work will focus on the production of high quality crystals of a wide range of oxides, borides, carbides, silicides and intermetallic materials. These include
superconductors, various low dimensional and frustrated magnetic materials, multiferroics and compounds which are both magnetic and superconducting. These crystals will be primarily grown by the floating zone method using optical mirror furnaces or by using a
tetra-arc furnace, whilst flux growth and other techniques will also be used as required.

In addition to crystal growth, the work will also involve the characterisation of the crystals produced through measurements of their structural and magnetic/ superconducting properties. There will be scope for taking part in experiments at international facilities
using neutron and x-ray scattering techniques.

You should be trained in experimental solid state synthesis and preferably have experience of crystal growth techniques and low temperature experimental techniques.
