Post-doctoral Fellowship
The Physics of Information Group, at Instituto de Telecomunicacoes (in Lisbon, Portugal), is seeking to hire one Post-doctoral Fellow to develop research in one of the following areas: quantum information theory, quantum effects in biology or quantum thermodynamics.
The candidates are expected to have a doctoral degree and research experience in one of the above areas, or in general in: open quantum systems, quantum optics, condensed matter physics, solid state/graphene physics, biophysics, or information processing in biological systems.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position starting on 1 September 2014 (or soon thereafter if a later start is required by the successful applicant) to build a quantum mechanical model for non-classical state generation, propagation and measurement
The project is to carry out research on the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium properties of many-body quantum system, for example cold atomic gases. 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 and – if possible – their potential use for applications, e.g. quantum information processing.

The Light-Matter Interactions Unit (groups.oist.jp/light) in OIST, headed by Prof Síle Nic Chormaic, invites applications for a postdoctoral position. The focus will be on developing and implementing novel trapping techniques for laser-cooled atoms based on nano- and micro-optics, with emphasis on nanostructured optical nanofibers. Such systems have potential for quantum engineering using neutral atoms. The successful candidate must have previous experience in laser-cooling of alkalis or ion trapping and must have prior, peer-reviewed publications in this field.
