Quantiki

This PhD project is aimed at developing highly sensitive methods for detection of magnetic fields with optically pumped magnetometers. The magnetometer will be based on laser-interrogation of room-temperature cesium or rubidium atomic vapor. The project will include work on designing a prototype magnetometer. Quantum techniques such as spin-squeezing can be used for improving the magnetic field sensitivity. Possible applications of this magnetometer include measuring bio-magnetic signals from the heart or brain. Such measurements can be done in the magnetically shielded room at Uni.

We are looking for an outstanding applicant with a strong track record for an academic postdoc position with the goal of building hybrid quantum photonic elements. During the last years, quantum optics has received growing attention (including Nobel Prices) for its ability to tailor quantum states in a highly controlled manner. Today, quantum optical systems start to emerge from the lab and start to be ready for real world applications. For these applications it is necessary to be able to build quantum photonic elements.

The group of Dr. M.H. Ansari at Peter Grünberg Institute in Germany is now recruiting a postdoc to research on the theory of quantum information and thermodynamics. The project is highly correlated to the paper: "M.H. Ansari and Y.V. Nazarov, arXiv:1502.08020"

Six PhD positions in theoretical quantum optics and quantum information science are available at the Centre for Quantum Optical Technologies (QOT) at the University of Warsaw. Successful candidates will work in a diverse environment including theorists and experimentalists on fundamental properties of quantum systems, such as quantum coherence and entanglement, and their applications in quantum technologies, such as quantum metrology, sensing, communication, and computation.

Dear colleagues,

The Department of Computer Science at the University of Paderborn, Germany, is seeking to recruit motivated Masters and Ph.D. students in theoretical quantum computation, with a focus on the areas of quantum algorithms, computational complexity theory, and/or cryptography.

Do you want to build a technology that enables autonomous cars, aircraft navigation, and even makes energy cheaper? Do you want to use your research for real-world applications that can change the trajectory of humanity? So do we!
At Atomionics, we are building a navigation technology which works everywhere – Land. Sea. Air. Space. – without requiring any external signal using Atom Interferometry, harnessing the potential of wave-nature of atoms. Atomionics is an early-stage high growth startup with a fun work environment, based in Singapore, a multi-cultural, sovereign city-state and island country in Southeast Asia. As an early employee, you’ll also be a culture contributor, helping define the culture of the company.

The School offers a vibrant educational and research environment in Chemistry and Physics. The South African Research Chair in Quantum Information Processing and Communication hosted by the University of KwaZulu-Natal, funded by the DST and administered by the NRF resides in the School. Currently, the research of the Chair is focused around open quantum systems, quantum information processing, cold atoms, and quantum optics.

UNSW Canberra has an opportunity for a Research Associate - Theoretical Quantum Optics. You will become a member of the Advanced Electromagnetics Group undertaking research in the field of Theoretical Quantum Optics working on projects funded by external sponsors in the area of quantum optomechanical and electromechanical systems.

A postdoctoral position is available at the University of Ottawa aimed at developing nanowire quantum dot non-classical light sources at telecom wavelengths for implementation in quantum networks. Candidates are expected to hold a Ph.D. degree in physics and a strong background in quantum optics and photonics of semiconductor-based nanostructures. Knowledge of quantum optical spectroscopy techniques, measurements at cryogenic temperatures and frequency translation techniques based on non-linear processes in on-chip waveguide structures are considered an asset.
