PostDoc

The Technical University of Dortmund has an opening for a PostDoc working on the implementation of photonic quantum memories on the basis of rare-earth ion crystals. The successful candidate should design an implement experiments that store photons in the crystals, convert them to nuclear spin degrees of freedom and protect them against environmental perturbations. The project is integrated in the EU-ITN CIPRIS (http://www.cipris.eu/).

The Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw invites applications for two research positions in quantum physics and quantum optics. The positions are funded from the European Union’s 7th Framework Programme project PhoQuS@UW: Fostering Excellence in Photonics and Quantum Science which aims at expanding experimental and theoretical research in widely defined optics and quantum physics including quantum optics and quantum information, ultrafast optics, atto-science, photonics, biophotonics, plasmonics, and related areas of research.

A 2-year Postdoctoral position in Theoretical Quantum Optics of Quantum Many-Body Systems is available at the University of Oxford. The deadline is 19 May 2013.

The project’s target is merging quantum optics and many-body physics of ultracold quantum gases, using theoretical methods of atomic and condensed matter physics. The post-holder will address phenomena, where the quantum natures of both light and ultracold matter play equally important roles.

The ANR Retour des postdoc NLQCC aims to study the foundations of quantum information from the perspective of computation and cryptography.

The Quantum Science and Technologies Group in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Louisiana State University invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher position of two years duration. The position is open to those having an active interest and track record of publication in theoretical aspects of quantum information science, such as quantum information theory, quantum error correction, quantum computational complexity theory, or quantum optical communication.

2-year Government of Ireland postdoctoral fellowships are now available, see

I would be interested in hosting/supporting a postdoctoral fellow working in Quantum Random Walks and/or Quantum Game Theory. The deadline is soon! Please email michael.mcgettrick@nuigalway.ie to explore possibilities.

Two 16 month theoretical postdoctoral positions in the topic of noisy quantum information processing are opening at the Department of Mathematics in Brunel University, west London, to start in summer 2013.

Applications are invited for postdoctoral positions in the group of Andris Ambainis at the Faculty of Computing, University of Latvia. Our research group is interested in the following research topics:
- quantum algorithms and complexity theory;
- quantum communication, quantum information theory and cryptography;
- connections between quantum computing and classical computer science;
- using ideas from quantum information to study physical systems (quantum Hamiltonian complexity).

The Quantum Information Group at the Institute of Theoretical Physics invites applications for positions for three

Research Assistants (67 % - 100%)
Salary Scale 13 TV-L

to be appointed as soon as possible.

These positions are parts of different fundings and therefore differently limited. They are open for Postdocs, as well as graduate students.
