Postdoctoral Positions in Experimental Quantum-Dot Spin Qubits and Theoretical Quantum Computing

National Taiwan University is inviting applications for postdoctoral positions in the following areas of quantum computing: (1) Experimental quantum computing for silicon-based quantum-dot spin qubits, (2) Quantum Computing Theory and Modeling, and (3) Quantum computer programing, algorithms and applications. Candidates will work on newly funded quantum computing projects that have both experimental and theoretical components. More descriptions about the postdoctoral positions can be found below. The postdoctoral positions are immediately available, and appointment will be initially for a year with possible extension for additional years based on performance. The applications are now open until positions are filled.

Postdoc in theoretical quantum computation/information (preferred specializations: algorithms, quantum walks, quantum games).
For initial enquiries, email michael.mcgettrick@nuigalway.ie

Description: We will theoretically investigate the physics of a highly excited Rydberg atom within a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC).The candidate will be expected to help guiding students in the group and survey or develop quantum mechanical methods for the numerical modelling of the system described above.

Requirements: Essential:

1. Ph.D. or post-doctoral experience in quantum theory.

2. Experience in numerical work / simulations.

3. Experience in writing published journal papers in English.

Desirable:

The Physics of Information and Quantum Technologies Group, at Instituto de Telecomunicacoes (in Lisbon, Portugal), is opening a 6-years Researcher position, available to start in March 2019 (earlier also possible).

The candidates need to have a PhD degree and research experience in at least one of the following areas: quantum information theory, quantum computation, quantum matter, quantum optics, quantum networks, quantum thermodynamics.

Application timing

The positions are in the group of Dimitris G. Angelakis in the Centre for Quantum Technologies Singapore (www.dimitrisangelakis.org). We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a strong research background and a PhD in theoretical quantum optics/physics and/or and/or quantum simulation and quantum computation and/or quantum many-body systems.

Postdoctoral Position in “Quantum simulation, quantum algorithms and quantum machine learning” in CQT Singapore

The Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies invites application to a 2 year postdoc scholarship in quantum foundations. The candidate will be working under the supervision of Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder on a project supported by the Franklin Fetzer Fund.

In the framework of a DFG-project, a PhD position is available and to be offered to highly motivated student who intends to enhance her/his scientist carrier in the field of semiconductor quantum optics. She/he should have a high interest in basic experimental research and like working in an interdisciplinary environment. The research will be carried out in the Nano Optics group at the Institute of Nanostructure Technologies and Analytics, INA. The focus of the project is to grow, process (in clean room), characterize, and embed in resonators and pin-diode low density InP- based QDs.

We are looking for a highly motivated and talented postdoc willing to join the team undertaking the "First Team" research project entitled Integrated optics in time-frequency domain: a new versatile platform for quantum technologies, funded by the Foundation for Polish Science. The project aims at research in the field of theoretical condensed matter as well as theoretical and experimental quantum optics. The research is carried out in international collaboration with groups from the University of Oxford (United Kingdom) and the University of Paderborn (Germany), with support from companies: Raith, Airbus Defence and Space, GMV Innovating Solutions, Lambda System and Semicon. The team is hosted by the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw.

We are looking for an outstanding applicant with a strong track record for an academic postdoc position with the goal of building hybrid quantum photonic elements. During the last years, quantum optics has received growing attention (including Nobel Prices) for its ability to tailor quantum states in a highly controlled manner. Today, quantum optical systems start to emerge from the lab and start to be ready for real world applications. For these applications it is necessary to be able to build quantum photonic elements.
