Faculty of Physics & Applied Computer Science (AGH)
and Institute of Catalysis and Surface Chemistry of Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN)
(both of Krakow, Poland) in cooperation with research institutes of 10 European countries run a common PhD programme in Nanoscience.
The project is financed by European Union Innovative Economy Programme with
Foundation for Polish Science.
8 PhD positions are opened in 2008 and 4 in 2009. The project duration is nearly 5 years, of which 6 to 24 months the students will spend abroad, mostly in Western European institutes that enter the consortium. A stipend for a month spent in Krakow is 3000 PLN and 4500 PLN abroad (tax free). This currently corresponds to 930 and 1400 EUR, respectively.

Recruitment
Positions are currently opened in the following topics:
1) Structure and properties of networks of nanoscopic magnetic wires
2) Electronic structure of artificial atoms and molecules: spin-orbit coupling effects
3) Computer simulations of quantum transport in semiconductor nanodevices
4) Surfactants, polyelectrolytes and nanoparticles as building blocks for surface nanostructures
5) Design and computer simulations of the nanodevices to applications in quantum computing
6) Nanostructures and stability of thin liquid layers
7) Current induced magnetization switching (CIMS) and noise characterization of MgO based magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs)
8) Dynamics of nanostructural organization and activity of photosynthetic systems in natural and model membranes.
