PhD

We are looking for a highly motivated and talented Ph.D. student willing to join the international team undertaking the "First Team" research project entitled Integrated optics in time-frequency domain: a new versatile platform for quantum technologies, funded by the Foundation for Polish Science. The international project aims at research in the field of theoretical condensed matter as well as theoretical and experimental quantum optics.

Institution: Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland

The group (https://iqoqi.at/en/group-page-romero-isart) led by Oriol Romero-Isart in Innsbruck (Austria) is currently offering a PhD and a Postdoc position. The earliest starting date is March 1st 2020.

We are seeking highly motivated and enthusiastic researchers with an excellent scientific record on the areas related to the group research activities, as described below. Women are particularly encouraged to apply.

We are currently offering a PhD position in the field of quantum statistics and tensor network states (see: https://www.beyondc.at/subprojects/p12-dakic/). The appointed candidate will pursue the PhD at the University of Vienna under co-supervision of Borivoje Dakic (University of Vienna) and Frank Verstraete (University of Ghent).

Are you a talented and ambitious researcher? Are you excited about quantum science and technology? Do you enjoy finding working solutions to great challenges? You are then welcome to apply for an open PhD position on "Multi-Qubit Quantum Photonic Devices" in our group at DTU Fotonik.

Applications are invited for PhD positions in experimental atomic physics at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), Singapore. Three positions are available within the research group of Murray Barrett, located at CQT on the campus of the National University of Singapore. Research is focused on the development of an optical atomic clock with singly ionized lutetium.

Starting in October 2020, we are seeking a PhD student each on two projects

1. Quantum sensing of multiple parameters

2. Quantifying accuracy and confidence in NISQ simulators

For both projects, full funding and stipend is available for exceptionally strong international as well as EU students. Visit the group website above for details of the projects, on the application process, as well as informal enquiries.

Deadline: January 16, 2020.

This PhD project is aimed at developing highly sensitive methods for detection of magnetic fields with optically pumped magnetometers. The magnetometer will be based on laser-interrogation of room-temperature cesium atomic vapor. Quantum techniques such as spin-squeezing can be used for improving the magnetic field sensitivity. The project may include work on designing a prototype magnetometer. Possible applications of this magnetometer include measuring bio-magnetic signals from the heart or brain. Such measurements can be done in the magnetically shielded room at Uni. of Nottingham.

PhD scholarship in Nanolaser Physics

We seek a highly talented candidate to do a PhD project on theoretical nanolaser physics within a recently started ERC Advanced Grant. The overall goal of the project is to explore, both experimentally and theoretically, a new class of nanophotonic devices based on Fano resonances, which promise to drastically reduce the quantum noise of nanolasers, while simultaneously increasing the modulation speed and offering unique control of the laser output. These properties are crucial for applications in future integrated photonic circuits.
