TL;DR
Postdoc in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry (Quantum Nanoscience): Investigating electronic structure and relativistic effects in lanthanide-containing molecular and periodic systems with an accent on equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOM-CC) methods. Focus on linking EOM-CC to spin-free exact two-component theory (SFX2C-1e) and validating accuracy against benchmarks for molecular magnets.
Location: Must relocate to the Netherlands
Salary: € 3,706 – € 5,760
