We are looking for a PhD candidate to work on challenges related to superconducting spintronics as part of the project “Flexible Superconducting Spintronics: Geometric control of low-dissipation, long-distance information processing (SuperFlex)”, funded by the Norwegian Research Council. The candidate will enroll in the PhD program at the Department of Physics, at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, within the group lead by Sol Jacobsen.
We are looking for a postdoctoral candidate with expertise in theoretical quantum condensed matter to work on challenges related to superconducting spintronics. This is a 3+1 year position funded by the Norwegian Research Council under the project “Flexible Superconducting Spintronics: Geometric control of low-dissipation, long-distance information processing (SuperFlex)”. Focus areas for the group are determining geometric effects on superconducting transport, and the fundamentals of light-matter cavity coupling. The group leader is Sol Jacobsen.
The Quantum Systems Unit, headed by Prof. Thomas Busch, has an opening for a theoretical post-doctoral scholar in the area of optics and light-matter interactions. More information can be found at
