PhD

Do you hold a W1 assistant professorship (with or without Tenure Track) or are you an ambitious leader of a
junior research group (e.g., Emmy Noether, ERC Starting Grant, or similar)? Are you working in the natural or
engineering sciences, medicine or psychology? Are you aiming for obtaining a full professorship or
habilitation?

The nanoelectronics theory groups at Forschungszentrum Juelich and RWTH Aachen are looking for highly motivated candidates to fill a Ph.D. position. The candidate will conduct research on theoretical aspects of nonequilibrium thermodynamics and quantum processors using quantum information theory. Dr. Ansari will supervise the projects and collaborate with leading experimental groups.

Open Positions for Postdocs and PhDs
(Photonic quantum computing in Taiwan)

Photonic linear optical networks are a promising platform for quantum information processing. The challenge in universal photonic quantum computing is its scalability. To scale up photonic quantum computing, one will need to achieve the stability of photonic sources, the tunability of linear optical interferometers, and the efficiency of photon number resolving detectors. All these requirements can be met in integrated photonics.

We are looking for an enthusiastic student to join us for a PhD in Oslo. The position is for 3 years and it will be within the group of operator algebra at the University of Oslo on a topic related to non-locality and quantum entanglement.

PhD and postdoc positions are available in the group of Prof. Stefan Willitsch at the University of Basel (Switzerland) on the development of quantum technologies for single trapped molecular ions and their application in precision spectroscopy and the control of molecular collisions and interactions.

Project description

Your tasks as a PhD-student will include:

We are offering several PhD and postdoctoral positions to well-qualified and highly motivated researchers who would like to enhance their career in basic research in theoretical quantum science. The successful candidate will work in the research group led by Hans Briegel at the University of Innsbruck. We are a leading research group working in quantum information and computation with a strong focus on interdisciplinary research.

The groups of Cryptology and Quantum Information (Alexander May and Michael Walter) at Ruhr University Bochum are looking for an excellent candidate for a fully funded Ph.D. position as part of Quantum-Safe Internet (QSI), a Marie Curie Innovative Training Network (MSCA-ITN). The QSI network involves top-ranking partner universities from France, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Spain, the UK, and Switzerland, as well as industrial partners.

As a PhD candidate in Photonic Quantum Computing (m/w/d) at Q.ANT, you will perform studies on universal approaches for photonic quantum computing. You will focus on investigating new ways to prepare high-fidelity resource states required for universal quantum computing. Within the framework of a public research project, you will be jointly supervised in collaboration with a leading-edge professor at a renowned research university (Technical University of Denmark). This will allow you to build up experience in both the university- and industry-based quantum technology research.

We are inviting applicants for a PhD and for a postdoctoral position in quantum information theory.

The successful candidates will work on current topics in quantum computing, specifically on the design of quantum algorithms and on the certification of quantum computers. These positions will be integrated into the successful and growing landscape of quantum technology projects in the region, including the Cluster of Excellence Matter and Light for Quantum Computing, and the quantum computer demonstrator project QSolid.
