Applications are invited for a 3-year PhD studentship (UK/EU priority) to commence in October 2020.
Title: Quantum simulation of complex quantum processes on superconducting qubits
The PhD will be based in the Faculty of Technology, and will be supervised by Dr Jaewoo Joo, Dr Arseni Goussev and Dr Andrew Burbanks.
We are looking for motivated PhD students or postdocs to join the group of Dr. Yuan Haidong at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The group works in the field of quantum information, quantum control, quantum metrology, and other quantum technology. The group is theoretical but works closely with experimentists.
Quantum communication via low-orbit satellites offers up a paradigm shift in telecommunications. Providing for unparalleled communication security, this emerging technology will also lead us into the development of the global quantum internet. In this project you will leverage optical quantum communications, quantum error correction, and channel modelling, to deliver novel and optimized quantum communication protocols specifically designed for the satellite-to-ground and inter-satellite channels.
Development and experimental evaluation of innovative classical and quantum optical communication systems

What we expect from you
A PhD position is available to work in the Quantum Correlations Group of the Department of Applied Physics at the University of Geneva under the joint supervision of Dr. Martí Perarnau-Llobet and Prof. Nicolas Brunner. The project is of theoretical nature and aims at optimising several thermodynamic tasks at the nanoscale, such as cooling, heat-to-work conversion, and quantum thermometry. The starting date is flexible (around September 2020), and the position is fully funded for 4 years.
For our group at the University of Siegen (Germany) we are looking for a motivated PhD student or postdoc in the field of quantum information theory, foundations of quantum theory, and quantum optics. The group is led by three PIs (Otfried Gühne, Matthias Kleinmann, and Stefan Nimmrichter) and the research topics include:
Prospective PhD students are invited to apply for a PhD position within the project “Quantum dynamics of impurities with long-range impurity-bath interactions”.
And join one of the most vibrant places for quantum science in Europe.
The Vienna Doctoral Program on Complex Quantum Systems (CoQuS) has been a training center for more than a hundred students the past 10 years. Our 15 different research groups are working on the forefront of the developments in modern quantum science and technology at six different locations in and around Vienna. Your training and research ranges from the most fundamental aspects of quantum science to advanced applications of quantum technologies – in both theory and experiment.
The PhD project is in the domain of many-body physics with highly excited Rydberg atoms. The position is funded via the DFG priority programme GiRyd (http://giryd.de/en/) through the grant "Non-equilibrium phenomena in Rydberg lattice gases with facilitation constraints". Areas of interest will be the study of the emergence of correlated dynamical states, the characterisation of phase transitions and collective phenomena, and the competition between classical and quantum effects, together with issues of thermalisation and non-ergodicity.
A PhD position is available immediately to work at the Quantum Technology Group at Queen’s University belfast on non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics enhanced by machine learning. The position will be funded by the Royal Society Wolfson Research Fellowship recently awarded to Prof Mauro Paternostro.
