Postdoc: Postdoctoral Position in Theoretical Condensed Matter and Quantum Information

At
University of Salerno - Department of Mathematics and Informatics, Quantum Theory Group

Field(s):

condensed matter, optics and optoelectronics, quantum mechanics, theoretical physics

This fellowship is a full-time three-year fixed-term fellowship funded under the recently established Perimeter Institute — Australia Foundations (PIAF) partnership. The Australian side involves Griffith University, the University of Queensland, and the University of Sydney. The successful applicant will be based at Griffith University in Brisbane, but will be supported to spend three months per year visiting other partners, split between Sydney and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada.

We are currently offering several postdoctoral positions to highly motivated and well-qualified young researchers who intend to enhance their career in the field of quantum information science. The successful candidates will work in the research group for quantum information theory led by Prof. Jens Eisert at the University of Potsdam in the Berlin-Potsdam metropolitan area.

The positions will be funded either by the EU project COMPAS (Computing with Mesoscopic Photonic and Atomic States) or by the European Young Research Investigator Award of the group leader.

ERATO-SORST Quantum Computation and Information Project　invites applications for post-doctoral positions to conduct theoretical research on quantum computation and information science, including quantum cryptography, quantum algorithm, quantum communication, and other fundamental topics on quantum information, or to conduct experimental research on quantum information with photons. Applicants should have earned a PhD in physics, computer science, information science, mathematics, or a related field, have demonstrated an excellent research accomplishment in quantum information science.
