Research Associate in Advanced Platform for Integrated Quantum Photonics Devices at Heriot-Watt University
The Quantum Photonics Laboratory seeks a talented and motivated
scientist to start a new line of research on integrated platforms for
novel quantum devices using rare-earth doped crystals for quantum memory
applications. Significant goals include
- the characterization of the optical/spin properties of different
crystals,
- manipulation and optimization of their electronic and spin coherence
through complex optical and MW sequences,
- implementation of quantum memory protocols in both bulk crystals and
waveguide structures,
- integration of MW circuits.
The project is expected to lead to high impact scientific
publications and to technological developments related to integrated
quantum photonic devices for quantum communication and computation. The
work will be conducted in the framework of a recently funded EPSRC grant
involving world-leading partners working on waveguide fabrication and
electrical engineering. It will be carried out under the supervision of
Prof Margherita Mazzera, who is principal investigator of the funded
project.
For more information, please send enquiry emails to Prof Margherita
Mazzera (m.mazzera@hw.ac.uk).
The application can be submitteed via the Heriot-Watt University
on-line recruitment system up to midnight (UK time) on Tuesday 18th
March 2025:
https://enzj.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/C...
It requires a CV and a cover letter explaining the
