quantum technologies

Squeezed light, where noise along one component of a signal is reduced below the limit set by the uncertainty principle, is a non-classical resource that has been used extensively to increase the accuracy of measurements. Squeezing has been deployed for the detection of gravitational waves, to improve sensing of magnetic fields and even to speed up the search for dark matter.

PhD and postdoc positions are available in the group of Prof. Stefan Willitsch at the University of Basel (Switzerland) on the development of quantum technologies for single trapped molecular ions and their application in precision spectroscopy.

Postdoc and PhD positions in theoretical physics:
Machine Learning for Quantum Technologies

The Quantum Technologies Team in MPA-Q is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral researchers in experimental atomic and optical physics. Current research conducted by our team of four staff, five postdocs, and two students focuses on atomtronics [New J. Phys. 19 , 020201, (2017)] and quantum information science [Phys. Rev. A 101, 030301(R ) (2020)] with ultracold atoms. The new postdocs will share responsibility for developing a number of new research directions.
