København Ø

The Niels Bohr Institute invites applicants for two PhD fellowships in Theoretical Quantum Optics and Quantum Information. The projects will be part of the Center for Hybrid quantum Networks (Hy-Q), which aims at making quantum networks based on single photons sources and mechanical oscillators.

Start date is (expected to be) August 1st, 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.

The projects

The projects will focus physical implementation of quantum information processing. One project will be about devising theories for how to perform quantum simulation of the dynamics of molecules using photon emitters in waveguides. The second project will be defined in collaboration with the successful candidate. Possible topics include scalable quantum computation with photon emitters, quantum sensing, optomechanical systems and transductions between microwave and optical frequencies.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for candidates within the field(s) of Physis or related areas. Applicants can have a background from theoretical quantum optics or quantum information theory but we will also consider candidates with different backgrounds.

Our group and research- and what do we offer?

The Theoretical Quantum Optics group focus on devloping theries for how to implement quantum information processing. The group consists of approximately 10 Ph.D. and post docs as well as a few master students. We have a close collaboration with local experimental groups and have recently been focusing on implementation of quantum information processing based on single photon emitters.

The group is a part the Quantum Optics Section, the Niels bohr Institute, Faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen. We are located in Copenhagen.

We offer creative and stimulating working conditions in a dynamic and international research environment with strong collaboration with local experimental groups.

Principal supervisor is Prof. Anders Søndberg Sørensen, The Niels Bohr Institute, [email protected] .
