Applications are invited for a Research Fellow position in Computational Surface Science Group. The candidate will work in the computational design and characterisation of novel graphene-based catalysts for CO2 and NOx reduction, two critical processes in environmental surface chemistry. In particular, the candidate will investigate the role of chemical doping by substitutional insertion of boron, nitrogen and phosphorus (B-, N- and P-doping), defects (single vacancies, SW vacancies and edges), defect densities and strain. This Project is funded by EPSRC and the position will be initially available for up to 24 months, with a possible view of extension at a later date.
