Offer Description

A 1-year postdoc position (renewable subject to the availability of funding) is available to work on the computational discovery and characterisation of organic molecules showing the first triplet excited state at higher energy than the first singlet excited state (in violation of Hund's rule), for potential application in OLEDs. Experience in quantum chemical calculations required. The project builds on the results of a recently published JACS paper (see https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.3c05452), featuring a collaboration with synthetic chemists and spectroscopists.

If interested, please contact Daniele Padula (daniele.padula@unisi.it) to get more information (Deadline February 12th).
