PhD

Candidates are sought for a PhD position in Theoretical Physics at l'Institut de Nanosciences de Paris (Sorbonne université) to be supervised by Dr Alex Chin. The project involves the simulation and theory of open quantum systems, with a focus on using new Tensor Network methods as a way to access the non-perturbative, real-time physics of excitons interacting with molecular vibrations in organic semiconductors and supramolecular nanostructures (see pdf at URL above).


There are different deadlines for each of the positions

We are looking for motivated and talented PhD candidates for the new Quantum Technology research group of Martin Kliesch at the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) in Germany. The group aims to fill up two positions until summer 2018.

Multiphoton quantum interference is one of the most intriguing phenomena in quantum physics, and is at the very heart of quantum computing and metrology technologies. However, the post-classical sensing and computational capabilities of multiphoton networks are yet far from being fully explored in practical experimental scenarios.

This theoretical project aims to develop scalable sensing and computational techniques based on the use of optimal linear interferometers with experimentally available photonic input states. The main idea is to exploit the full quantum information encoded in the interferometric evolution of the input photonic quantum states by employing novel measurement techniques (e.g. iterative interferometric dynamics, conditional dynamics, multiplexing and correlation measurements sensitive to the photonic inner and spatial modes).

Start date: 1 October 2018 or 1 February 2019
Application deadline: 7 May 2018
Supervisors: Dr V Tamma, Dr H Yu (Univeresity of Portsmouth), Prof G Adesso (University of Nottingham)

SUMMARY
We are seeking applicants for experimental PhD positions to work in the area of circuit QED based quantum simulations at the University of Technology Sydney under the supervision of Dr Nathan Langford. Please register interest by emailing [email protected]. Positions will remain open until filled.
