Quantum batteries have garnered significant attention as a novel energy storage paradigm, leveraging quantum phenomena such as coherence, entanglement, and squeezing to outperform classical counterparts. While a substantial body of research has focused on finite-dimensional systems, particularly spin-based and qubit-based models, the potential of bosonic systems, such as harmonic oscillators, remains underexplored. This research aims to bridge this gap, emphasizing the unique advantages offered by continuous-variable setups, including scalability, and compatibility with realistic physical systems, in particular quantum optics and materials.

Open call for a fully funded 4 year PhD position, supervised by Dr. Anthony Kiely at the School of Physics, University College Cork, Ireland. The project is in the area of theoretical quantum physics, so an undergraduate degree in physics or related discipline is an essential prerequisite. Experience with quantum optics and programming (e.g. Python, Mathematica etc.) would also be beneficial. The project will investigate new methods for modelling continuous quantum measurements and leveraging these results for quantum feedback control.

The Peter Grünberg Institute for Quantum Control (PGI-8) at the Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany, is offering a fully-funded PhD position for three years to pursue unique research on sample-efficient gate calibration methods based on quantum optimal control. The successful candidate will be jointly supervised by Prof. Dr. Felix Motzoi (PGI-8) and Dr. Markus Heinrich (University of Cologne).
