Job offers 2021

Postdoc and PhD positions

The NanoQuCo CAM Synergy Grant on New Emerging Scientific Fields is offering positions for excellent postdoctoral researchers and PhD students, starting in 2021. We seek motivated and independent researchers to work in the CSIC and IFIMAC/UAM groups. The number and types of positions will depend on the number and quality of applications.

Both postdocs and PhD students will join to work in the development of quantum technologies, such as quantum computers, sensors and simulators, based on nanophotonic devices. Specific topics within the project include

  • Control of quantum interactions through nanophotonic structures.

  • Nanophotonic structures for the generation of complex quantum states of light.

  • Development of new quantum computing paradigms with quantum nanophotonics.

  • Spectroscopy and metrology with quantum states of light.

The researchers will join two groups who are very active in the fields of nanophotonics and quantum technologies, with a broad network of international collaborators. They will participate in the joint activities of the group, such as seminars, workshops and conferences.

Realistically, candidates may incorporate as early as mid-October (considering the time to fulfill the paperwork and contract). The consortium has not decided on the number of postdoctoral (2 years) and PhD positions (max. 3 years), which will be opened, as this will depend on the number and quality of the applications.

Expressions of interest, including a CV, references and a motivation letter should be addressed to the project's email contact.
