Postdoc Opportunity at NIST:
Nanoplasmonics and Quantum Simulation in Single-Atom Devices

NIST (a government research lab located in Maryland, USA) has a program in researching single-atom devices. These devices, when operated at low temperatures, give us the remarkable ability to monitor or control the motion of single electrons. Among the goals of our research are to develop charge and spin qubits for use in quantum computing.

At this time we have two projects:

SUMMARY
We are seeking applicants for experimental PhD positions to work in the area of circuit QED based quantum simulations at the University of Technology Sydney under the supervision of Dr Nathan Langford. Please register interest by emailing nathan.langford@uts.edu.au. Positions will remain open until filled.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project is to carry out theoretical research on the physics of trapped Rydberg ions and atoms within the ERyQSenS-consortium (funded through the QuantERA call) which is formed by European experimental and theoretical research group.

A fully funded PhD position in "Quantum thermodynamics beyond the
Markovian regime" is available for a joint project between the School
of Physics, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, and the Department of
Physics and Astronomy, University of St Andrews, U.K. The work will be
jointly supervised by Profs. Paul Eastham and John Goold in Trinity
College Dublin, in conjunction with Dr. Brendon Lovett in the
University of St Andrews. The successful candidate must hold by the
start date a degree in physics, theoretical physics or applied
