The aim of the research work within the Collaborative Research Center CRC1415 “Chemistry of synthetic 2D materials” is to combine quantum mechanical (QM) methods with state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) techniques to investigate and predict the electronic and magnetic properties of the building blocks in two-dimensional (2D) polymers (e.g., (a)chiral covalent organic frameworks). This will enable us to define data-driven design rules that will be integrated into generative AI frameworks for the design of novel 2D polymers with desired QM properties for catalysis and energy storage. The computational work will be performed in close collaboration with synthetic chemists at TU Dresden to validate the synthesis of the novel materials, ensuring an interdisciplinary working environment. The project would require the candidate to perform extensive QM calculations using density functional theory and to develop python-based tools for data analysis. Additionally, further development of ML-based computational workflows to explore structure-property and property-property relationships will be a key task. To this end, the successful applicant will be integrated into the research activities of CRC1415 and at the Chair of Prof. Cuniberti.
