Postdoctoral Positions in Computational Materials Science and Nuclear Materials at Czech Technical University in Prague Czech Technical University in Prague in Czech Republic

The Advanced Materials Group at Czech Technical University in Prague, led by Associate Professor Antonio Cammarata, is offering two postdoctoral positions in the field of computational materials science. The research focuses on two main areas: computational study of electrode materials for ozone generation and advanced medium-entropy alloy systems for sustainable and safe nuclear energy applications.

The first project involves computational modeling of electrode materials, which are crucial for efficient ozone generation. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent with significant applications in water treatment, air disinfection, food processing, and material coatings. The research aims to design and optimize materials that enhance ozone production and durability.

The second project centers on the development and study of medium-entropy alloys for use in nuclear reactors. These materials must maintain structural integrity under extreme thermal, mechanical, and irradiation environments to ensure the safety and longevity of nuclear energy systems. The work involves advanced computational techniques to predict and analyze material behavior under such conditions.

Applicants should hold a PhD in materials science, physics, chemistry, or a closely related discipline. Experience with computational modeling and simulation of materials is highly desirable. The group offers a collaborative and international research environment, with support for writing fellowship proposals such as the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship. Funding details and further information are available on the group website.
