København Ø
The Niels Bohr Institute, Faculty of Science at University of Copenhagen is offering a PhD scholarship in Quantum photonics commencing 1 june 2021 or as soon as possible thereafter.
Description of the scientific environment
The position is embedded in the Quantum Photonics Group within the Center of Excellence “Hybrid Quantum Networks Hy-Q”. We carry out fundamental and applied research on solid-state quantum-information processing with solid-state quantum emitters embedded in photonic nanostructures.
Title: Nanomechanical quantum photonic devices
Project description
The Niels Bohr Institute (NBI), University of Copenhagen, is seeking an enthusiastic student who enjoys working as part of a team to undertake a PhD in the quantum photonics group (www.quantum-photonics.dk). The project will be supervised by Assoc. Prof. Leonardo Midolo and Dr. Rodrigo Thomas. The aim of the project will be to develop a new set of nano-scale devices for controlling and manipulating light-matter interaction in a quantum photonic integrated circuit. The project will involve a combination of experimental optics, device simulation, and nano-fabrication. The student will be based in a well-equipped quantum optics lab at the NBI and cleanroom facility at the H.C. Ørsted building.
The successful candidate will be joining the recently-funded ERC project NANOMEQ (https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/949043). The goal of the project will be to develop a new platform for photonic quantum information processing based on nano-opto-electro-mechanical systems (NOEMS) [1]. NBI has developed state-of-the-art deterministic single-photon sources [2] using semiconductor quantum dots integrated in photonic nanostructures [3]. To fully harness the potential of integrated photonic quantum technologies, it is necessary to scale it up, i.e. to perform operations on many photonic quantum bits (or ‘qubits’) simultaneously to generate and manipulate entangled photons. The overarching goal is to demonstrate the seamless integration of single-photon sources with the quantum gates required for building truly scalable quantum photonic micro-processors. In this project we will pursue a novel approach to control light-matter interaction and quantum gates based exclusively on electro- and opto-mechanical interactions. The emphasis of this project will be in the design and fabrication of robust nano-mechanical photonic devices such as routers [4] and phase shifters towards the demonstration of multi-mode unitary gates and scalable single-photon sources.
The PhD student’s tasks will include:
[1] L. Midolo et al, “Nano-opto-electro-mechanical systems,” Nat. Nanotechnology 13, 11-18 (2018).
[2] R. Uppu et al, “On-chip deterministic operation of quantum dots in dual-mode waveguides for a plug-and-play single-photon source,” Nat. Commun. 11, 3782 (2020).

The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff.
Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on Academics in the State.
The starting salary is currently at a minimum DKK 330,284 (approx. €44,000) including annual supplement (+ pension at a minimum DKK 53,674). Negotiation for salary supplement is possible.
Application Procedure
The application, in English, must be submitted electronically by clicking APPLY NOW below.
Please include
Reference letters must be uploaded by the applicant him/herself. The recruiting person must NOT obtain reference letters which content is not known to the applicant him/herself. This is against Danish law.
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
The deadline for applications is 1 April 2021, 23:59 GMT +1.
After the expiry of the deadline for applications, the authorized recruitment manager selects applicants for assessment on the advice of the Interview Committee. Afterwards an assessment committee will be appointed to evaluate the selected applications. The applicants will be notified of the composition of the committee and the final selection of a successful candidate will be made by the Head of Department, based on the recommendations of the assessment committee and the interview committee.
The main criterion for selection will be the research potential of the applicant and the above mentioned skills.
