Researcher Profile: Recognised Researcher (R2)
Country: France
Application Deadline: 26 Nov 2024 - 23:59 (UTC)
Type of Contract: Temporary
Job Status: Full-time
Hours Per Week: 35
Offer Starting Date: 1 Feb 2025
Is the job funded through the EU Research Framework Programme? Not funded by a EU programme
Is the Job related to staff position within a Research Infrastructure? No
Offer Description The objective of the position is to participate in the development of an original flying qubit architecture using ultra-short single-electron charge pulses. Such an electron flying qubit can be realized through an electronic Mach-Zehnder interferometer. By coupling 2 electronic Mach-Zehnder interferometers through Coulomb interaction, we will demonstrate quantum entanglement between the two propagating single electron wave packets. The activities involved include training a new internship student in nanofabrication and assisting in setting up new experiments, which includes Python programming of dedicated electronic equipment.
Responsibilities Assistance in Nanofabrication of quantum devices.
Setup of an experiment allowing to entangle 2 Mach Zehnder interferometers.
Interfacing radio-frequency electronic equipment.
Writing research articles.
The Institut NEEL, UPR 2940 CNRS, is one of the largest French national research institutes for fundamental research in condensed matter physics, enriched by interdisciplinary activities at the interfaces with chemistry, engineering, and biology. The laboratory is related to the CNRS Physique and is located in the heart of a unique scientific, industrial, and cultural environment, part of one of Europe's biggest high-tech environments in micro- and nanoelectronics, right next to the French Alpes.
In the Institut Néel, the QuantECA team is specialized in the experimental study of quantum electronic devices, from fundamental studies to applications of quantum technologies.
The candidate must hold a PhD in physics. Skills in cryogenics, quantum nanoelectronics, nanofabrication, and programming (Python) would be an asset.
