Very Excited to announce this opportunity: 2 post doctoral fellowship openings at the Quantum Information and Computing lab, Raman Research Institute, Bangalore, India (https://wwws.rri.res.in/quic/) in the domain of secure quantum communications! Looking for highly motivated students (who have finished their PhDs) who wish to contribute to cutting edge research in a very promising area of quantum technologies.

Secure quantum communication over long distances may be enabled by the development of satellite platforms for the distribution of quantum states and entanglement from space. The Chinese satellite Micius has demonstrated the technical feasibility of satellite quantum communication and there are many international efforts to achieve similar capability. Quantum Key Distribution is the prime application but such space systems may be able to support new and novel protocols even more challenging to perform with terrestrial fibre networks.
