The group of Dr Shijun Zhao is seeking a Post-doc. Our group belongs to the Department of Mechanical Engineering, City University of Hong Kong. We conduct research in Computational Defect Properties. Specifically, our group aims to understand defect thermodynamics, defect production, defect migration, and defect evolution in different materials under deformation or irradiation conditions. The defects considered include point defects, impurities, dislocations, stacking faults, grain boundaries, surfaces, etc. Different simulation techniques at different scales are concurrently or sequentially employed. Specifically, our recent interest is in high-entropy alloys and novel energy storage and conversion materials. Dr. Zhao has authored and co-authored more than 80 technical papers with more than 3000 citations in the field of computational material science. Detail information, please visit https://scholars.cityu.edu.hk/en/persons/shijun-zhao(b956b94f-a138-4df9-880b-f82528cb3ecb).html. The successful applicant should have a PhD degree in Physics, Material Science, or a related field, working in computational material science. A background in Machine Learning is highly preferred. The candidate should have demonstrated through his or her dissertation a high quality of research output, ideally with 1-3 papers under revision or accepted for publication in international refereed journals. She/he is expected to conduct independent computational materials related research and also contribute to the ongoing research projects of the group.
To apply, please send the following documents to this website: a cover letter, your CV, a copy of your degree certificates, and a 2-3 page research statement using the following subject: “PostDoc application – [Your name]”. Review of applications will begin immediately, and applications will be accepted until the position is filled. The salary offered will be highly competitive, commensurate with qualifications and experience. Contract duration is for one year and can be renewed subject to performance. Only short-listed candidates will be contacted.
