QKD

The researcher will work on mathematical modeling and security analysis of CV-QKD protocols. They will develop new protocols and improve current security proofs, aiming at better system performance and suitable computational requirement, summarizing the protocol and security proof in a comprehensive way in view of standardization and certification. They will closely work with experimental partners providing theoretical support to the experimental activity.

At Quantum Technology Laboratories GmbH (qtlabs), we are at the forefront of innovation in optical and quantum-based communication technologies. qtlabs develops cutting-edge quantum key distribution (QKD) technology, security proofs and simulations toolkits for space and terrestrial QKD applications. Based in Vienna, our center of excellence drives technological advancements that secure communication around the world.

We are looking for motivated candidates to join our research group at the University of Padua (Italy) and work on cutting-edge topics in Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG) for ground and space!

UKZN is establishing a Centre for Quantum Computing and Technology with an emphasis on use cases for quantum computing and creating Quantum Key Distribution and quantum imaging devices.

The team of Experimental Quantum Communications in York has recently been awarded funding from the
Quantum Communications Hub for a project to investigate and develop Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution
(TF-QKD), a novel technique to dramatically extend the QKD transmission range.
The research associate will work in a stimulating environment in brand new labs and with expert colleagues to
achieve the goals of the project through a curiosity-driven approach.

Telecommunications operators have an increasing need for security in their networks in order to face malicious intents and provide their customers with highly secure services (i.e. defense, banking, health, 4.0 industry…).
