Quantum computers and simulators have the potential to solve a wide range of problems more efficiently than classical computers. Cold atoms present a leading platform in this context, unmatched in size and scalability. In your thesis work, you will realize a new architecture for a quantum processor, which uniquely combines single-atom resolved manipulation through microscopy with the interaction control arising from light-matter coupling. This approach provides new opportunities to realize quantum states with non-local entanglement and perform quantum-limited measurements.

We offer the possibility of performing experiments at the forefront of quantum information science in an international environment. We expect a strong motivation and commitment to our research. Starting time for the PhD/Master positions is at your earliest availability.

During the project you will
- Contribute to cutting-edge research in quantum science
- Experience an international, collaborative scientific environment
- Develop scientific skills by performing experiments in quantum information science
- Acquire technical skills in optics, mechanical engineering, data analysis, etc.
- Improve your communication skills by presenting your results on international conferences and collaborating with colleagues from the leading research groups across the world
