[交流] Postdoc Position on Computational Materials Science (Canada)

Computational material scientist on diffusion, clustering and dissolution in alloys and oxides

PHX group in the Department of Physics and Atmospheric Science at Dalhousie University (Halifax, Canada) is looking for a postdoctoral researcher with expertise on atomistic simulation of metal alloys and/or oxides. We employ density functional theory (DFT), nudged elastic band method under constant voltage (eNEB), cluster expansion (CE), and kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) to simulate long-timescale kinetics in materials synthesis, operation, and degradation. Our goal is to reach experimentally relevant timescale to make useful predictions on atomistic processes and the resulted macroscopic behaviors. The applications include structural alloys, as well as battery materials.

The candidate will work closely with our experimental collaborators on Dalhousie campus, at the University of Toronto (Dr. Yu Zou), and from private sectors.

Potential projects include but are not limited to:
1) Effects of minor elements on the corrosion of Ni-based alloy.
2) Clustering in Al alloy during natural aging.
3) Transport and phase transition in battery cathodes.
For more information, please visit our group’s website: https://penghao-xiao.github.io/xiao_group.

Interested candidates should directly contact Dr. Penghao Xiao (pxiao@dal.ca) with your cover letter and CV.
