Surrey is funding 25 new PhD positions with full scholarships. Five scholarships will be awarded for start in Oct 2015 or Jan 2016, and applicants must choose from 11 possible projects.
The ATI is offering 5 of the 11 possible projects:
[Postdoctoral research fellowship and PhD positions]
Two postdoctoral positions and PhD positions are available from Oct. 1 2015 in the group of Quantum Information Theory led by Joonwoo Bae (Hanyang University-ERICA) and Won-Young Hwang (Chonnam National University), recently established consortium in Korea. The successful candidates will conduct an independent research and interact with the local group, in topics of fundamental aspects of quantum information theory toward cryptographic applications.
We offer:
11 fully-funded 4-year PhD positions to undertake cutting-edge technology research in Nottingham as part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Hub in Sensors and Metrology (http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/generic/quantum/index.aspx)
Projects include experimental studies of: ultracold atom systems; solid-state atom chips; optical and quantum electronic device design, fabrication and study; 3D printing of next-generation sensor chips; biomedical imaging; GPS
A PhD position for a UK/EU student is available to work with Marco Piani, at the the Department of Physics of the University of Strathclyde, in Glasgow, UK. The research activity will focus on fundamental quantum features like entanglement and coherence, and their role in quantum information processing and quantum dynamics.
Applications should be submitted as soon as possible through http://pgr.strath.ac.uk/ (by 25 June 2015 to be fully considered; later applications may still be considered).
The Institute for Logic, Language & Computation at the University of Amsterdam is looking for a PhD candidate in the area of quantum cryptography, as part of Christian Schaffner’s NWO VIDI Project Cryptography in the Quantum Age.
We are pleased to announce the availability of a PhD position at the University of Nottingham in the area of Quantum Technologies related to the creation of an atom-photon interface. The aim of the project is to create a single device, which allows the optimal connection of photons to cold atoms for quantum optics and quantum information experiments. To this end we use a transparent microchip with embedded waveguides, where atoms in a magneto-optical trap can be stored close to the chip surface.
The rapidly developing field of quantum technologies is set to have a transformative impact on core enabling technologies, from sensors to communications. There is a need for the crucial research that will develop new methods to enable the shift from laboratory devices and prototypes into manufacture and deployment. As part of a strategic investment in quantum systems engineering by Loughborough University, five fully funded PhD studentships are available in the area of Quantum Systems Engineering for Quantum Technologies.
We offer two Ph.D. student positions in the project ''New fundamental bounds on correlations of a strictly quantum nature. Various definitions of quantumness and their mutual relations''.
Nuclear Theory Group invites applications to fill one or two doctoral positions. Applicants for these positions must have a M.Sc. degree, or foreign equivalent, and some experience in research in theoretical nuclear physics or condensed matter theory. Prospective candidate should have an interest in computational methods, and their application to solve physical problems. The successful candidate will join the international group working on the theoretical description of low energy nuclear reactions, dynamics of quantum gases and nuclear matter in neutron stars.
