quantum optics

The researcher will work on mathematical modeling and security analysis of CV-QKD protocols. They will develop new protocols and improve current security proofs, aiming at better system performance and suitable computational requirement, summarizing the protocol and security proof in a comprehensive way in view of standardization and certification. They will closely work with experimental partners providing theoretical support to the experimental activity.

The University of Bonn, with eight approved Clusters of Excellence - three of which are in the Department of Physics/Astronomy - is one of Germany’s leading research universities.

The QuPhotonics Lab is seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join our team, which focuses
on cutting-edge developments in quantum optics, quantum communication, and quantum networks, with strong ties to both
fundamental physics and emerging quantum technologies. You will play a central role in designing, building, and operating
state-of-the-art quantum optics experiments. We are especially interested in candidates eager to push the limits of real-world

PhD Position: Quantum-Enhanced Two-Photon Processes

University of Insubria (Como, Italy)

Supervisors: Prof. Lucia Caspani & Prof. Matteo Clerici (lucia.caspani@uninsubria.it, matteo.clerici@uninsubria.it)

The Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (IQST) and the Department of Physics and Astronomy in the Faculty of Science at the University of Calgary invite applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar in Quantum Technology, with a focus on micro- and nanofabricated quantum circuits, ranging from integrated photonic systems to superconducting devices.

This position is affiliated with the Integrated Hybrid Quantum Circuits group, which provides access to state-of-the-art quantum device fabrication and measurement facilities at the University of Calgary. The group is engaged in cutting-edge research at the interface of quantum optics, superconducting circuits, and hybrid quantum systems, with strong collaborative ties to national labs and industry partners.
