PhD

A postdoctoral position and a PhD grant are available as part of a project involving three groups at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (Brussels, Belgium):
- Centre for Quantum Information and Communication (QuIC): Nicolas Cerf, Jérémie Roland
- Algorithms Research Group: Jean Cardinal and Stefan Langerman
- Discrete Mathematics Group: Sam Fiorini

The successful candidates will join one of the three teams and participate to their joint project ``COPHYMA'' (Unifying computational, physical and mathematical approaches to complexity).

The target area includes different topics in theor

The Advanced Technology Institute at the University of Surrey consists of approximately 50 researchers working on topics including III-V and silicon based light emitters and detectors, light-matter interaction in microstructured photonic materials, quantum computing with superconducting qubits, spintronics, and energy efficient photonic devices. The institute benefits from strong interaction between experimental and theoretical activities.

We are pleased to announce the availability of a PhD position at the University of Nottingham within the project on a Quantum integrated Light and Matter interface funded by the European Comission through the Fet-open Young explorers call. The aim of the project is to create a single device, which permits to manipulate, store and control light on a single photon level using tailored quantum matter.

The Quantum Information Group at the Institute of Theoretical Physics invites applications for four positions as a

to be appointed as soon as possible.

These positions are parts of different third-party funded projects and therefore differently limited. They are open for Postdocs, as well as graduate students.

Responsibilities and duties

ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences (http://www.icfo.eu), in collaboration with the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), is offering a predoctoral fellowship to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic graduate student who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment, as well as to obtain a doctoral degree in Photonics.

ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences, Castelldefels (Barcelona, Spain), is offering a predoctoral fellowship to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic graduate student who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment, as well as to obtain a doctoral degree in Photonics. The students at ICFO benefit from the extensive course offerings of local universities and focused instruction by ICFO professors while carrying out research activities at ICFO groups with local and international collaborators.

The Group of Applied Physics at the University of Geneva in Switzerland is one of the premier research institutions in the field of Quantum Information Science and

With the new project "Robust Quantum Information and Metrology" at Macquarie University we have two PhD scholarships to fill. In Australia a PhD is normally 3-4 years in duration and there is no coursework. The scholarships cover the university fees, and provide an annual stipend of about $23,000, with some support for relocation. <!--break--> We have just purchased a new TESLA Personal Supercomputer, with more computing power than the world's most powerful computer in 2000.

A new PhD position in Theoretical Quantum Optics of Ultracold Quantum Gases and Nanostructures is available at the University of Oxford, Department of Physics.
