Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) Full time

About the Company

At Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU), we are at the forefront of developing innovative solutions for the future. Our research focuses on advancing quantum technology, and we are seeking a skilled PhD to join our team.

Job Description

We are looking for a talented researcher to work on the development of highly efficient quantum light sources operating in the telecom C-band. Your primary objective will be to create a universal, scalable platform by integrating deterministic quantum light sources, active components, and detectors onto SiN quantum photonic circuitry.

This project, QPIC1550, is funded by the European Union and has the potential to revolutionize quantum photonics by enabling the creation, manipulation, and detection of on-demand single photons and entangled photon pairs. The aim is to demonstrate the flexibility of the QPIC1550 platform in three key different use cases which require the cooperation of multiple integrated optical devices: Quantum Key Distribution, Remote Quantum Computing, and Quantum Clock Synchronization experiments.

Responsibilities and Qualifications

  • You will develop a theoretical framework for mapping quantum circuits designed for monolithic computing schemes to a QD-based multi-node remote quantum processing architecture.
  • You will experimentally characterize quantum emitters in InP-based material systems with a focus on telecom C-band wavelength.
  • You will collaborate with an interdisciplinary team to design and characterize novel QD-based quantum light sources for remote quantum computing demonstrators in SiN at 1550 nm.
  • You will publish research findings in top-tier scientific journals and present at international conferences.

Required Skills and Qualifications

  • You must have a two-year master's degree or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree.
  • You should have a strong background in condensed matter physics and quantum information science.
  • Experience in integrated photonics and experimental quantum optics is an advantage.

Salary and Benefits

The salary for this position is approximately $65,000 - $80,000 per year, depending on your qualifications and experience.

As a formal qualification, you must have a two-year master's degree or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment.
