Theoretical studies of a few-body physics experimentally realized with ultra-cold atoms
In the group of Prof. Uwe R. Fischer at Seoul National University a position is open in the field of dissipative quantum state engineering. Possible topics include applications to noiseless subsystem protection of the fidelity of error correcting codes, quantum metrology and sensing, and concrete implementation setups.
Initial appointment is for one year with a possible extension to two years. Salary is according to the Korean postdoc scale.
The selected candidates will work with our established team of physicists and engineers to build our integrated photonic quantum computation platform based on the continuous variable (CV) approach. They will be involved in all aspects of the quantum hardware system at Xanadu’s lab: design of photonic components, construction of the apparatus, and carrying out key experiments. They will also be responsible for writing patents and peer-reviewed publications describing these devices and experiments. Successful applicants will have a proven track record of accomplishments in experimental quantum optics, having developed during their research careers cutting-edge techniques for the generation, control, and detection of non-classical light.
Multiphoton quantum interference is one of the most intriguing phenomena in quantum physics, and is at the very heart of quantum computing and metrology technologies. However, the post-classical sensing and computational capabilities of multiphoton networks are yet far from being fully explored in practical experimental scenarios.
This theoretical project aims to develop scalable sensing and computational techniques based on the use of optimal linear interferometers with experimentally available photonic input states. The main idea is to exploit the full quantum information encoded in the interferometric evolution of the input photonic quantum states by employing novel measurement techniques (e.g. iterative interferometric dynamics, conditional dynamics, multiplexing and correlation measurements sensitive to the photonic inner and spatial modes).
Start date: 1 October 2018 or 1 February 2019
Application deadline: 7 May 2018
Supervisors: Dr V Tamma, Dr H Yu (Univeresity of Portsmouth), Prof G Adesso (University of Nottingham)
Open Postdoc Fellowships at the Erwin Schrödinger Centre for Quantum Science and Technology (ESQ)
The Erwin Schrödinger Center for Quantum Science and Technology ESQ is run by the Austrian Academy of Sciences in partnership with the University of Vienna, the Vienna University of Technology and the University of Innsbruck, supported by the Austrian Ministry of Education, Science and Research and cofounded by the European Commission.
QIPLSIGML — machine learning meets quantum computation. A three-day meeting of machine learning and quantum computation communities.
The goal of the meeting is to acquaint Polish actors of the IT sector such as: researchers, engineers and entrepreneurs with quantum computation and its near term applications. Recent progress in quantum machine learning theory justifies a belief that quantum computation will find near-term applications in machine learning practice.
Postdoc Opportunity at NIST:
Nanoplasmonics and Quantum Simulation in Single-Atom Devices
NIST (a government research lab located in Maryland, USA) has a program in researching single-atom devices. These devices, when operated at low temperatures, give us the remarkable ability to monitor or control the motion of single electrons. Among the goals of our research are to develop charge and spin qubits for use in quantum computing.
At this time we have two projects:
