PhD

Quantum Experiments
IBM Research is seeking Research Staff Members with outstanding background in experimental quantum computing, quantum control, and microwave measurements. Candidates will focus on improving quantum gates in multi-qubit systems and are expected to work closely with theorists to model device physics and develop novel gate implementations in superconducting qubits. Rich collaboration with other members of the quantum computing team is expected.

Job Description
The World is Our Laboratory: No matter where discovery takes place, IBM researchers push the boundaries of science, technology and business to make the world work better. IBM Research is a global community of forward-thinkers working towards a common goal: progress.

IBM is seeking a Research Staff Member to work at its T. J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY.

The project

We are now seeking an outstanding student or postdoc with an interest in quantum system identification to join our team in Berlin.

This project is concerned with notions of quantum state and process tomography, randomized benchmarking, certification of quantum processes, property verification and estimation, and learning of quantum features.

PhD position in Quantum Communication

We seek for a talented and independent graduate student who wishes to develop her/his scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment. This doctoral degree project will be carried out in the quantum photonics group led by Ana Predojevic (http://qphotonics.fysik.su.se). The successful candidate should have interest in quantum technologies, specifically quantum information and communication.

We are currently offering a position to a highly motivated and well-qualified researcher who intends to enhance the career in the field of quantum information science, on either the postdoctoral or the PhD student level. The successful candidate will work in the research group for quantum information theory led by Jens Eisert at the Dahlem Center for Complex Quantum Systems of the Free University of Berlin.

The Computer Science Department at the University of Paderborn is seeking motivated Masters and Ph.D. students in the areas of quantum algorithms, complexity theory, and/or cryptography.

Master's students will be recruited into the research group of Jun.-Prof. Dr. Sevag Gharibian. Ph.d. students will be recruited into the group of Prof. Dr. Johannes Blömer.

Application Deadline: Until the position is filled
Start date: 1 October 2018 or 1 February 2019

We are looking for talented and ambitious graduates with Master in Physics
who wish to pursue a Ph.D. in Quantum Optics and Quantum Metrology.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Vincenzo
Tamma at the School of Mathematics and Physics and Institute of Cosmology and
Gravitation at the University of Portsmouth, UK and Dr. Frank Narducci at the
Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California, USA.

A PhD Position is available to work on long-distance quantum communication networks!

Background

The vision of a Quantum Internet is to provide fundamentally new internet technology by enabling quantum communication between any two points on earth. Such a Quantum Internet will – in synergy with the ‘classical’ internet that we have today - connect quantum processors in order to achieve unparalleled capabilities that are provably impossible using classical communication.
