PhD position equirements: Master's degree in Physics with outstanding academic performance, very good knowledge of solid-state physics and quantum mechanics, programming experience, intrinsic motivation, excellent English skills Hamiltonian in the Wannier basis, and Ua de notes the screened on-site interaction in the orbital. The operators create and annihilate an electron , respectively, and . The evolution of the Mott gap closely follows the variation of the screened interaction Ua ob tained from cRPA. Employment: 3-year position (75%) according to Austrian universities collective agreement Application documents: motivation letter, CV, transcript of records, contact details of two referees The resulting model is solved Postdoc position within DMFT using the continuous-time quan tum Monte Carlo (CT-HYB) impurity solver implemented in w2dynamics.47 All computa tions are performed at an inverse tempera , corresponding to ap At a =+3%, a transition to a correlated metallic state occurs, as evidenced by the emer gence of a pronounced quasiparticle peak at the Fermi level, coexisting with reminiscent LHB and UHB features. These results demonstrate that the screened Coulomb interaction, Mott physics, and metal-to–insulator transition in and electronic correlations in TMDs, provid ing a route toward optical control of correlated phases and guiding the interpretation of ul trafast spectroscopic experiments in 2D CDW materials. the central (site A) and outer (site C) Ta atoms in the SoD cluster, i.e. Requirements: PhD in theoretical/computational condensed matter physics, experience with many-body methods (e.g. DMFT), excellent programming skills, excellent English skills, ability to work independently and collaboratively deq is the distance in the equilibrium CDW distortion. A positive monolayer 1T-TaS2 can be e↵ectively tuned by the CDW amplitude. Furthermore, since the Hubbard band positions oscillate in phase with the CDW amplitude mode, this mechanism opens a route to dynamically control electronic correlations through lightwave-driven lattice vi brations. Employment: 2-year position (100%) according to Austrian universities collective agreement Application documents: motivation letter, CV, publication list, contact details of two referees proximately 10K.
