QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

A senior postdoctoral position is available at the European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nuclear Physics and Related Areas (ECT*).

The European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nuclear Physics and Related Areas (ECT*) invites applications for a 3 year senior postdoctoral position starting in January 2018.

The research at the ECT* focuses on Nuclear Physics in a broad sense, and on related areas. In addition, scientific activities carried out at ECT* concern workshops, collaboration meetings, doctoral training programs and specialized courses.

We have an opening for a three-year postdoc position in foundations of quantum mechanics / quantum information theory at the University of Gdańsk, Poland with starting date 1st January 2018.

The position will be financed under the project “Quantum correlations – from few to many particles” founded by the Polish National Science Center under BEETHOVEN programme.

Scope of research for the project include:

Preparation, manipulation and detection of single particles are major goals in physics and technology. By using a new source based on photoionization of atoms that produce a correlated ion and electron pair we aim at the full control of the space-time trajectory of the individual ions using the extra information provided by the electrons.

The Quantum Nanomechanics group of the Aalto University’s Department of Applied Physics (Helsinki, Finland) is looking for outstanding individuals; to work on electromechanical quantum systems under the EU Horizon 2020 FET Proactive project Hybrid Optomechanical Technologies (HOT), running from Jan 2017 until Dec 2020. The positions are filled and the work can start as soon as a suitable candidates are found, ideally late fall 2017.

NANO group at Aalto University’s Department of Applied Physics (Helsinki, Finland) is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join the Academy of Finland project "1/f noise". This position is targeted in strengthening our capabilities in suspended graphene devices, which can be employed as sensors in various condensed matter systems.

PICO group of the Aalto University’s Department of Applied Physics (Helsinki, Finland) is looking for highly motivated PhD students and post-docs to work on projects on quantum thermodynamics in electronic circuits, and on developing 

We are looking for an experienced and ambitious researcher with a background in optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) techniques to study solid state qubits in Adam Gali’s group at Wigner Research Centre for Physics which is the leading physics institute in Hungary. This is a Postdoc job that can be turned to tenure track position for qualified researchers.

The Global Research Center for Quantum Information Science at the National Institute of Informatics in Tokyo is seeking applicants for two fixed term research appointments to work on hybrid quantum systems and quantum networks.  The appointments will be initially for one year period starting from 1st of October 2017 with a possible extension of another year.  The research projects are theoretical in nature, however successful applicants are expected to work closely with experimentalists.  Details of the center research activities can be found at
