About the role

We invite applications for a postdoctoral position at the Security and Quantum Information Group (http://sqig.math.tecnico.ulisboa.pt) at Instituto de Telecomunicações (IT), University of Lisbon.

The Group consists of 14 senior researcher and postdocs, and 9 graduate students.

Research interests of the Group include security, cryptography, quantum information, complexity, and formal methods. The group local collaboration includes experimental quantum optics group from IT-Aveiro and industry partners, such as Tekever.

- Job description
Applications are invited for a Research Associate position within the Quantum Optics and Laser Science Group of the Department of Physics. You will work on the newly established Samsung-Imperial project “Quantum Simulation and Algorithms for New Quantum Materials”.

Hiring two 2-year (extendable to 5) postdoctoral researchers to work on quantum sensing for biomedicine applications, starting on September 1, 2019 in Florence, within an EU FET-OPEN H2020 consortium. If interested, contact asap filippo.caruso@unifi.it

Palacky University in Olomouc, Czech Republic, announces a postdoctoral position in the field of quantum metrology and sensing. The main objective of the project is to develop new techniques or use the existing state-of-the-art methods in quantum metrology to some physical applications, such as quantum communication, quantum optomechanics, or interferometry with active elements. Applicants are welcome with a background in estimation theory or metrology/sensing or in any of the mentioned fields of application.

• Development of high-performance superconducting quantum circuits and their classical controls
• Design and operation of a quantum processor and its control hardware and software stack
• Part of the Flagship project OpenSuperQ (opensuperq.eu) and the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (wacqt.se)

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoc to join our Emmy-Noether research group in Theoretical Quantum Physics, starting off on 1.August at the LMU Munich. The candidates are expected to have strong analytic skills, ideally with a background in fermionic quantum systems and reduced density matrices. Mathematical Physicists are encouraged to apply as well. Our projects are concerning the interface of Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Many-Body Physics.

Two postdoc positions in the area of quantum network implementations are available in Christoph Simon’s theoretical quantum optics group at the University of Calgary (see http://www.iqst.ca/people/peoplepage.php?id=225). Topics of particular relevance for the two positions include quantum memories for light, quantum repeaters, and microwave-to-optical quantum transduction.

The Quantum Information Group at the Institute of Theoretical Physics invites applications for positions for two Research Assistants (m/f/d) (Salary Scale 13 TV-L, 75% - 100%) to be appointed as soon as possible. The positions are initially limited to one year with the possibility of extension. These positions are part of different research projects and therefore open for post-doctoral researchers and/or PhD students.

Responsibilities and duties

We offer a 2-years post-doctoral position for a motivated researcher to join our work on spin qubits in silicon carbide (SiC). Colour centres in SiC have recently be shown to uniquely combine excellent spin properties with ultrastable optical transitions for spin-photon interfacing (see, for example, our collaborative work publish in Nature Communications 10, 1954). Our goal is to push the limits in controlling individual electron and nuclear spins in silicon carbide, to demonstrate quantum devices in a technologically-mature semiconductor platform.
