Job description
During this project, you will be at the forefront of experimental research, both independently and as a member of our research team. Your responsibilities may encompass :
* Conceptualizing and designing innovative quantum devices and systems
* Conducting advanced microwave measurements with a focus on quantum-limited noise performance
* Developing customized solutions for the control and readout of spin qubits
* Exploring scalability aspects of hybrid quantum systems
* Engaging in material studies and advancing nanofabrication processes to enhance qubit performance
* Fabricating superconducting and semiconducting devices, with the potential to collaborate with other teams within the research groups
* Becoming a member of our fabrication team to contribute to the development of flip-chip technology integration
Your research will benefit from the comprehensive infrastructure, expertise, and collaborative network available within our research groups and across the NCCR SPIN. Regular interactions with theory collaborators, both within Switzerland and internationally, will be integral to your research activities.
As a Ph.D. student, you will also play a role in providing informal supervision to graduate / master students.
Your profile
We are seeking candidates who hold (or are nearing the completion) a master’s degree in physics, Engineering Physics, or Applied Physics. You should have a strong interest and expertise in at least two of the following areas : experimental quantum processors, quantum information science, quantum optics, superconducting devices, microwave engineering, nanofabrication, and flip-chip technology integration.
A future career in research and development or education, whether in academia or industry, should align with your career aspirations. You should possess a genuine curiosity for scientific exploration and a drive to create impact in quantum research. Proficiency in English, both in reading and writing scientific materials, is a prerequisite. Exceptional candidates with a demonstrated track record in any field of physics, engineering physics, or nanotechnology will be considered. Previous experience in nanofabrication, particularly of superconducting circuits or mesoscopic electronic devices, will be regarded as an asset. Familiarity with experimental condensed-matter physics, quantum optics, and quantum technology is appreciated.
