Role Description

The Quantum Photonics Laboratory at Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh, UK) seeks a talented and motivated scientist for a Post-Doctoral position (24 months, with possibility of extension) on 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, optimization of their electronic and spin coherence, and the implementation of quantum memory protocols in both bulk crystals and waveguide structures.
