The group of Prof. Yoichi Ando in the Physics Institute II of the University of Cologne is trying to elucidate the non-Abelian nature of the Majorana zero modes generated in a topological insulator (TI) platform and to build a Majorana qubit. The successful candidate will work on TI-superconductor hybrid devices to understand the mesoscopic topological superconductivity realized in such a platform, to detect and manipulate the emergent Majorana zero modes, and to read out the results of manipulation via charge-parity measurements.

At the Chair of Quantum Information Systems (https://qis.rwth-aachen.de/) at RWTH Aachen, Germany, we have several phd and postdoc positions available in the area of quantum formal verification, quantum programs, quantum crypto, connected to the ERC project "Certified Quantum Security" (https://kodu.ut.ee/~unruh/cerqus/).

Supervisor would be Dominique Unruh.

In particular, there are the following topics, but we accept phd and postdoc applications for other topics if they fit into the general direction of our group.

For the newly established research group on quantum cryptography led by Ramona Wolf at the University of Siegen (Germany), we are looking for a motivated PhD student or Postdoc. Possible research topics include:

  • Security proof techniques for quantum key distribution, in particular those related to quantum steering
  • Quantum random number generation
  • Entropic uncertainty relations and their use in QKD
  • Quantum foundations

Applicants for a PhD position are expected to have

We are looking for candidates to fill an experimental PhD or postdoc position at the Quantum hacking lab led by Vadim Makarov at Vigo quantum communication center. We need candidates with background in electrical and optical engineering, applied physics, electronics, optics, or telecommunications. A successful applicant will be employed full-time at the University of Vigo, Spain.
