Overview

The Theory of Quantum Nanostructures RG is dedicated to Curiosity Driven Research on electronic, magnetic and light-matter interaction of Quantum Nanostructures, with special emphasis on the quantum properties of two-dimensional systems.
We are looking for a qualified Junior Research Fellow to join our team under the project Excitations in quantum 2D Materials funded by FCT, with the code PTDC/FIS-MAC/2045/2021.

SR&TD project specifications: INL coordinates the QUEST2D project funded by National Funds through the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT):
(a) Name of the project: Excitations in quantum 2D Materials
(b) Reference number: PTDC/FIS-MAC/2045/2021
(c) Description: Materials whose electronic properties are governed by emergent quantum electronic phenomena, such as topological insulators, Mott insulators, unconventional superconductors and 2D magnets fall into the broad label of Quantum Materials. In this project we will study collective excitations, such as magnons, paramagnons, excitons, plasmons in two-dimensional(2D) quantum materials of two types: 2D crystals with either magnetic order, such as CrI3, oxychlorides, and Fe2GeTe3, or superconducting order, such as NbSe2, and Van dervWaals heterostructures combining them both with each other and with other 2D crystals such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides. The study of collective excitations is of paramount importance for two reasons. First, collective excitations govern the response of these materials to experimental probes, and are thus essential to turn experimental data into physical insight about the materials. Second, collective excitations behave as quasiparticles that can be used to store and carry information, both classical and quantum, providing a platform for advanced technologies, and can also be the glue for superconducting pairing. In this project we address, from the theory standpoint, several open questions in the field of 2D crystals that feature either magnetic or superconducting order, as well their Van der Waals heterostructures. In all cases, hybridisation between different classes the collective modes plays a crucial role and requires to go beyond the state of the art methods. We consider two types of hybridisation. In 2D crystals with strong spin-orbit coupling or strong magneto-dichroism, the spin response function is coupled to the charge and optical response functions. The second type of hybridisation studied here occurs in Van der Waals heterostructures that bring different 2D crystals. In both cases, the standard approximation of treating the spin, charge and optical response functions as decoupled objects fails.
(d) Scientific Area: Condensed Matter Physics

Description of the functions and key primary responsibilities:

Model spin response of NBSe2 and related spin-vally coupled materials;Understand the photo-magnetic response of ferromagnetic 2D crystals (such as CrI3) and alloys (such as WSe2:V), as well as antiferromagnetic crystals such as FePSi3 and FeOCl; Compute the inverse Faraday effect (IFE) and photon-magnon and exciton magnon interactions, and how these could be used to implement optically driven magnetic resonance. Specific Eligibility Conditions:

MSc in Physics, Nanoscience, or similar; Relevant experience in condensed matter theory, simulation of model Hamiltonians and, calculation of electronic properties;Ability to write simulation codes for numerical calculations of model Hamiltonians, using Python and/or Mathematica.

Applications that do not meet these conditions will not be considered.

Selection Committee:

Dr. Joaquín Fernández Rossier
Dr. Antonio Costa
Dr. Nuno M. R. Peres
Renata Silva - Human Resources

Duration of the contract
The total duration of the employment contract shall be 6 months and may be renewed based on the performance of the individual. In any case the contract cannot exceed the duration of the project. The expected starting date is June 2024.
