Opportunity summary

Are you an experimental quantum physicist who wants to create and control new quantum states of light and matter? We are seeking three postdocs for the Quantum Physics and Information Technology section at DTU Physics.

You will lead one of three experimental projects in quantum opto-acoustics, continuous-variable (CV) quantum communication, or CV quantum computing, working in an international team with advanced optical, cryogenic and electronic laboratories. Responsibilities and qualifications Your main responsibility will be to drive an experiment from design and implementation to measurement, analysis and publication.

The three positions have distinct scientific focuses; applicants should indicate the track or tracks that best match their background:

- Quantum opto-acoustics

Develop cavity optomechanical and opto-acoustic experiments aimed at preparing, controlling and detecting non-classical states of large, high-Q mechanical systems.

- CV quantum communication

Develop entanglement-enhanced communication using squeezed and entangled light, including generation, distribution and detection of CV entanglement and demonstrations beyond corresponding classical strategies1 …
