In recent years, NV center has led to extensive application in quantum information and quantum sensing research. However, there are many types of new defects in wide bandgap materials, such as SiV and defects in SiC. In our group, we will investigate novel types of defect system, which can have superior properties compared to NV center. Furthermore, we will use them in the research of quantum optics and quantum information. The research will be supported by our recent national research fellowship funding with a budget around ~3M S$.

The project is to carry out research on the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium properties of many-body system, for example cold atomic gases, quantum optical systems or classical colloidal systems. One focus will be on the study of the emergence of correlated states and collective phenomena in the presence of dissipation and/or (coherent) driving.

Applications from highly motivated researchers are welcome for a postdoctoral position in the group of Adolfo del Campo in the Department of Physics, University of Massachusetts Boston.
