We are seeking a research team leader (the position is offered as part of the tenure track) to join the CTP PAS research team. The candidate should demonstrate a passion for science and a willingness to make a lasting commitment to the Institute and contribute to its development by conducting high-quality research, establishing their own research group, securing research grants, and being active in the organisation.

The salaries of the members of the emerging research team will be financed through the EUCENTRAL project (min. 2 PhD students and post-docs). Furthermore, funds for conference travel will be provided for the team (for the duration of the project).

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.

We have a vacant position for a postdoctoral researcher in theoretical quantum physics, to work on challenges relating to superconducting spintronics. The position is in the group of Dr. Sol H. Jacobsen, in the Quantum Spintronics section at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology NTNU.

We propose to study the interaction between mechanical and electronic degrees of freedom using a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) based on a single suspended carbon nanotube. The project can evolve toward two main directions. The first one aims at observing and generating mechanical quantum states of the carbon nanotube such as Schrödinger cat. The other direction focuses on the study of the dynamics of a single molecular magnet [6] using the nanotube-SQUID as an ultra-sensitive magnetometer.

The Theory of Quantum Systems Group invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researchers in the theoretical and computational condensed matter physics group of Prof. Michał Nowak. The research involves modelling of topological superconductors, superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures, topological Josephson junctions with the aim to focus on quantum transport and nonreciprocal phenomena.

Applications from Indian nationals are invited for the position of a Research Associate (initially for 1 year, extendable upto 3 years based on performance) under the project “Topology, quantum computation and spintronics with Dirac materials” in the School of Physical Sciences, NISER funded by DST Nanomisssion, Govt. of India.
Qualification - Candidate should have Ph.D degree in Physics (or, should have submitted the thesis), preferably in theory. Fellowship: Rs.24,000+HRA (as per DST norms) per month. Age: Maximum 35 years.
