The State University of Campinas is looking for candidates interested in the research project entitled “Multi-scale Modeling of Hydrogen Storage in Nanoscrolls”. The position is at the Institute of Physics of the State University of Campinas (Brazil), under supervision of Prof. Douglas S. Galvão.

The main goal is to develop a theoretical model to the process of hydrogen storage in nanoscrolls of different materials. Due to their large contact area and open edges, nanoscrolls can be considered better candidates than conventional nanotubes

Eligibility

• We are looking for candidates with:
• the initiative, independence and interested in interdisciplinary research
• excellent academic records
• Fluent in English
• previous experience with molecular dynamics simulations (classical, reactive and ab in)
• Candidates must have finished his/her PhD after 2011.

How to Apply

How to apply: Applications should be made by e-mail. It should be directed to Prof. Douglas Galvão ([email protected]). For application, please attach to the e-mail message:
