Job description

In this project properties of organic materials for metal free flow batteries will be studied using computational methods. We will develop workflows for automatic generation of properties related to redox chemistry, diffusion properties, aggregation and more. We will also investigate potential degradation pathways of the materials. The project is performed in close collaboration with experimental groups. We will use the new quantum chemistry software developed at the Theoretical Chemistry & Biology division (VeloxChem) in combination with other codes for molecular dynamics.
