Description
The Chair of Experimental Physics at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) invites application for Ihre Aufgaben We are seeking highly motivated PostDoc researchers to join a rapidly growing research team, led by Christopher Eichler, which conducts state-of-the-art experimental research in quantum computing, quantum information science and quantum optics with superconducting circuits.As a successful candidate, you will get the unique opportunity to take part in setting up a state-of-the-art quantum-computing laboratory and to perform collaborative research contributing to the grand goal of building universal quantum computers. Based on your interests and skills you will engage with a set of specific research topics chosen from the following areas: • Design and fabrication of next-generation multi-qubit quantum processors enabling hardware-efficient quantum error correction • Exploration of Novel circuit QED components enabling fast and high-fidelity gates and measurements • Development, fabrication and characterization of 3D-integrated multi-chip modules • Research on elements for quantum communication and modular quantum computing • Improvements to qubit coherence enabled by new materials, processes, and chip designs • Systems integration and (real-time) system control enabled by machine learning • Tune-up, operation and (algorithmic) benchmarkung of quantum computing hardware Your research will benefit from a stimulating academic environment offered by FAU and will be embedded in a rapidly evolving quantum ecosystem in Bavaria. You will have opportunities to interact with partners and collaborators in academia and industry as part of national and state-level initiatives such as the Munich Quantum Valley. Ihr Profil Notwendige Qualifikationen: Your profile and qualifications: • You have a PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Micro- and Nanotechnology, Chemistry, Computer Science Mechanical Engineering or a related field. • You have a strong interes in experimental realizations of quantum information processing systems • You are dedicated to pursuing a successful career in research, development or education either in academia or industry. Wünschenswerte Qualifikationen: Ideally, you have experience in one or more of the following areas: quantum information processing e.g. with superconducting circuits, trapped ions, semiconductor quantum dots or color centers, experimental quantum optics and atomic physics, cavity quantum electrodynamics, micro- and nano-scale electronic devices and their fabrication (cleanroom, deposition, lithography, etching techniques), mesoscopic solid-state physics, low-temperature physics, operation of dilution refrigerators, microwave electronics, digital electronics, FPGAs, instrumentation, and software development. Stellenzusatz Befristetes Forschungsvorhaben How to apply: We look forward to receiving your application documents sent to [email protected] as a single pdf-file. Application documents should include: • a motivation letter • a curriculum vitae • a list of publications • certificates and transcripts • copies of bachelor and master theses (as available) and doctroal certificate • contact information of two references. Please arrange for two reference letters to be sent directly to Christopher Eichler.Applications will be considered immediately and until positions have been filled.
