PhD

Application Deadline: Until the position is filled
Start date: 1 October 2018 or 1 February 2019

We are looking for talented and ambitious graduates with Master in Physics
who wish to pursue a Ph.D. in Quantum Optics and Quantum Metrology.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Vincenzo
Tamma at the School of Mathematics and Physics and Institute of Cosmology and
Gravitation at the University of Portsmouth, UK and Dr. Frank Narducci at the
Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California, USA.

A PhD Position is available to work on long-distance quantum communication networks!

Background

The vision of a Quantum Internet is to provide fundamentally new internet technology by enabling quantum communication between any two points on earth. Such a Quantum Internet will – in synergy with the ‘classical’ internet that we have today - connect quantum processors in order to achieve unparalleled capabilities that are provably impossible using classical communication.

Project Description
PhD positions are available at QuTech, Delft University of Technology to work on quantum communication networks.
