Join our cutting-edge research group to revolutionize photonic quantum technologies!

Integrated photonics plays a pivotal role in advancing photonic quantum technologies, enabling ground-breaking quantum optics experiments and building the basis for photonic quantum computing and quantum networks.

We are looking for:
1: A PhD student to design and operate integrated photonic circuits for networked quantum applications.
2: A PhD student to pioneer advanced quantum photonics experiments using large-scale integrated processors.

You will:

  • Use and develop state-of-the-art setups for characterising integrated photonic circuits and photon
  • Test circuits and operate them on a single-photon level
  • Create and characterize highly entangled photonic resource states
  • Realise applications in quantum computing and networking
  • Contribute to project meetings, workshops, and international conferences
  • Build your foundation for future-oriented jobs in research and photonic industries

You have:

  • Interest in collaborative and interdisciplinary research
  • MSc in Physics, or related
  • Experience in experimental quantum optics and (photonic) quantum technologies
  • Programming skills (Python, Mathematica, Matlab, …)

Be part of the future of quantum innovation—apply now!
Send your application by Feb 15th 2025 with:

  • Short statement of research interests (max. 1 page)
  • CV
  • Certificates or transcript of records
  • Contact details of three referees

The positions are fixed term and available until filled. The positions are funded (75% TVL E13).
