How to Apply.
This theoretical project concerns the modeling of electronic processes in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs have unique properties: they are energy-efficient, have a large area, and can be made flexible and transparent. For these reasons they are considered to be the light sources of the future. OLEDs are presently rapidly entering the display and lighting market. Several mobile-phone brands nowadays offer OLED displays that are superior to the usual LCD displays with backlight. The first white OLEDs for lighting applications are being launched. Essential electronic processes in OLEDs are: 1) the injection of electrons and holes, 2) the transport of electrons and holes, 3) the formation of excitons, i.e., bound electron-hole pairs, 4) the diffusion of excitons, and 5) the decay of excitons under the emission of photons. Many aspects of these processes are still poorly understood. A full breakthrough of OLED technology requires breakthroughs in the modeling of these processes.
Profile
We are looking for a motivated candidate with an MSc in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or Mathematics and with strong theoretical and/or computational skills. A good education in Quantum Physics, Statistical Physics, Quantum Chemistry and/or Computational Physics is an advantage. He/she should be able to work in a dynamic environment and to collaborate with academic as well as industrial partners.
