PostDoc

The Quantum Information & Computational Physics (QuICoPhy) theory lab of Prof. Stefanos Kourtis in the Department of Physics at Université de Sherbrooke is looking to recruit up to two postdoctoral researchers with a background and interest in quantum condensed-matter theory, quantum information, and computational problems in general. The appointments will be for two years with a possibility of renewal for a third year. The anticipated start date is February 2021 but later start dates are possible.

The Center for Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering at the Medical University of Vienna (head:
Prof. Wolfgang Drexler, Vienna) in collaboration with the Institute for Integrated Circuits at the
Johannes Kepler University Linz (head: Prof. Robert Wille, Linz) is seeking for a Postdoc in the area of
quantum computing.

The Soft and Complex Materials Lab at IST Austria is looking for an exceptional experimental postdoc. The successful candidate will design and build a sophisticated optical tweezers system to study the physics of tribocharging at the single charge level. Experience with optics, automation, and LabView is highly sought, but any exceptional candidate with a strong experimental background will be considered. The duration of the project will be two years with the possibility of extension.

A post-doctoral position is opened at the Interdisciplinary Research Institute of Grenoble (IRIG, formerly INAC) of the CEA Grenoble (France) on the theory and modeling of silicon-on-insulator quantum bits (qubits). The selected candidate is expected to start between October and December 2020, for up to two years.

Fully founded 3-year theory PhD and Postdoc positions available soon in the group of Prof. Jarek Korbicz within OPUS project "Novel approach to decoherence and information transfer studies in open quantum systems" founded by the National Science Center of Poland.

There is an opening for a postdoctoral fellow to work at the QuSys Group at Trinity College Dublin starting around October 2020 with some flexibility in the precise date. The QuSys group is a young, dynamic and international group lead by Prof. John Goold. The groups interests are diverse ranging from thermodynamics of quantum systems and quantum transport in non equilibrium steady states (NESS) to quantum information and many-body physics. The position is initially for 2 years and can be extended further. The salary and further particulars can be discussed in an arranged online meeting.

For our new project on single time-bin entangled photon pairs from semiconductor quantum dots in collaboration with the universities of Münster (Germany)  and Linz (Austria) we are looking for a post-doc with experience in quantum optics, ideally with semiconductors and sources of nonclassical light. This experience should be documented by a strong publication record.

We will soon announce 1 PhD and 1 postdoc position in the group of Jędrzej Kaniewski within a SONATA project "Fundamental aspects of the quantum set of correlations" funded by the National Science Centre, Poland. The potential research topics include:

Applications are invited for ​a postdoctoral research​ position in the theory of​ modern quantum algorithms.

The position will be held at ​Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (​Skoltech), Moscow, Russia. ​The start date is flexible but we would like to fill these position(s) as soon as possible.

The successful applicant will work in the research laboratory structure led by Prof Jacob Biamonte in the general area of quantum computation, with a focus on quantum enhanced algorithms and error mitigation on experimental devices.
