Wave packet interference experiments for the investigation of ultrafast dynamics and decoherence effects on the attosecond time scale

Supervisor: Prof. Frank Stienkemeier

Eligibility criteria and requirements
The applicant should be a highly motivated early stage researcher with a Master degree in Physics. A solid background in the atomic, molecular and optical physics as well as experience in laser and vacuum technology is needed.

QUSTEC programme follows MSCA eligibility criteria: Required level of experience is ‘Early Stage Researcher’ according to the definition in the work programme of the 2018-2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions: Applicants must, at the date of the respective call deadline of QUSTEC, be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their research careers and have not yet been awarded a doctoral degree. Mobility criterion: The applicants must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the future host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before the call deadline of QUSTEC. Short stays such as holidays are not taken into account. For refugees under the Geneva Convention, the refugee procedure (i.e. before refugee status is conferred) will not be counted as a period of residence/activity in the country of the host organisation.

Understanding and engineering microscopic sources of noise in solid-state quantum devices

PhD supervisors : Dr Clemens Müller and Dr Andreas Fuhrer

Eligibility criteria and requirements
The candidate should have a solid background in quantum mechanics, quantum optics and quantum information theory, ideally with previous experience in the theory of open quantum system. The candidate must be curious to learn and expand her/his expertise on quantum circuit design, condensed matter physics, materials science, surface chemistry, and experimental data analysis. Excellent coding skills and a working knowledge of Mathematica and Python are expected.

Your Tasks

  • Developing quantum machine learning algorithms
  • Investigating error mitigation for NISQ devices
  • Participating in cooperation projects with industry and research
  • Managing project assignments and/or supervising students
  • Disseminating research results in scientific publications, lectures and by attending outreach activities aimed at the general public (e.g., events, trade fairs, etc.)

What we expect from you

We are currently hiring for five roles at Nu Quantum. These are :

- QRNG Experimental Scientist
- QRNG Theoretical Scientist
- Quantum Optics Scientist
- Quantum Detector Scientist
- Project Manager

Our roles are based in Cambridge, United Kingdom.

We are offering both a fully funded three-year postdoctoral position (E13) and a PhD position (E13 3/4) to highly motivated and well-qualified researchers who intend to conduct research in the field of quantum error correction and related fields. The scientific project will relate to the fundamentals of topological quantum error correcting codes as well as to near-term error mitigation in realistic quantum devices. The successful candidates will work as part of the research group led by Jens Eisert at the FU Berlin.
