Quantiki

General Scope:

PhD positions open to join our group in Palermo. Please, check the call for applications and choose the competition code 7 (Information and Communication Technologies). Deadline 20th July 2018. Please, contact me if you need further clarifications: rosario.lofranco@unipa.it. See also: https://rosariolofranco.weebly.com/.

We have reopened for applications to a theory postdoctoral position at the University of Sheffield working with Dr Earl Campbell (https://earltcampbell.com/).  The applicant should have a research interest in developing new architectures for quantum computation using topological codes (e.g. surface and colour codes) and other LDPC codes (e.g. hypergraph and homological product codes). 
 
Topics of interest include:
- Design of new LDPC and topological error correction codes.
- Single shot error correction.

The Physics department at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, is looking to employ a full time Post Doctoral Fellow in theoretical condensed matter physics for a fixed term two year position with a possibility for extension. The focus of the research will be in topological states of matter, systems out of equilibrium, open systems, and light-matter interaction.

We are looking for a postdoc with experience in experimental quantum and/or nonlinear optics. Possible projects are:

- Quantum metrology with nonlinear interferometry
- Generation of photon triplets through a direct cubic nonlinear process
- Physics at the boundary of quantum and nonlinear optics: nonlinear effects pumped with quantum states of light, extreme events, interaction of light with matter.

Applicants should send to maria(dot)chekhova(at)mpl(dot)(mpg)(dot)de a recent CV and the names of two persons who can provide letters of support.

Deep Quantum Labs is in the ongoing process of a expansion planned over the next several years as we continue to establish resident based international leadership in several core areas of theory related to quantum computation, tensor networks, Hamiltonian complexity and quantum machine learning.

PhD position on architectures for distributed quantum computation

MITRE is seeking highly qualified and motivated scientist/engineer to join MITRE’s Quantum “Moonshot” Program. The candidate should have intimate knowledge or experience in quantum optics and integrated photonics. In this role, you will apply your technical experience in quantum physics and photonics to develop entangled photon sources, chip-based quantum photonic circuits, or quantum optical measurement systems.
