Job description:
The project focuses on application of first-principle, fully quantum simulation methods such as Hybrid Monte-Carlo to study charge transport in many-body quantum systems where light fermions interact with high-temperature, nearly classical bosons. Charge transport mechanism in such systems is a beautiful intersection of Anderson localization with real-time dynamics, and is usually referred to as Transient Localization.
A particularly important application is the charge transport in a vast class of quasi-2D molecular organic semiconductors (rubrene, pentacene, and >4000 other materials). The goal is to make the simulations as realistic as possible based on our seminal work ArXiv:2312.14914, and to use realistic simulations to automatically search for high-mobility, technologically promising compounds within digital structural databases of organic molecular crystals. Molecular semiconductors are promising candidates for large-area electronic devices (solar panels, lighting).
The project is cross-disciplinary in nature and has many intersections with Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics simulations in high-energy physics.
