Dear all,
Quantum Information team in Sorbonne University is looking for their new post-doctoral researchers!
Please find below related information.
General on QI team
The Quantum Information (QI) team in LIP6, Sorbonne Université, is looking for several post doc positions of various lengths on different topics, please see below for more details.
Quantum network protocols
Device independent QKD
Connecting quantum processors
Quantum information with CV cluster states
The QI team is an interdisciplinary research group covering computer science, theoretical physics and experimental quantum optics. We are based in LIP6, Sorbonne Université, in central Paris, and are founding members of interdisciplinary centres the Quantum Information Centre Sorbonne and the Paris Centre for Quantum Technologies. We are involved in many regional, national and international initiatives in quantum information, including several EU flagship projects. We strive to promote equality, diversity, inclusion and tolerance.
More information on the posts and on the QI team, and the work we do can be found here.
Informal enquiries can be sent to the contacts for each post below.
Applicants should send their CV, a cover letter and arrange for at least two references to be sent to qi@lip6.fr
The deadline for applications is 31/08/2023
Quantum protocols
(Contacts: Damian Markham, Eleni Diamanti)
Two theoretical post-docs in quantum information networks, in the context of the European Flagship project Quantum Internet Alliance (QIA). The QIA is a large international consortium of over 45 partners across Europe from academia and industry with the focused mission of developing the future quantum internet. This position concerns the development of protocols for applications for quantum networks, such as networks of sensors, distributed and delegated quantum computation, anonymous communication e.t.c. working with collaborators across the spectrum from those building the devices themselves, to developing the software stack, to working with industry on real world use cases.
The successful candidate will be expected to manage their own research, contribute to the working life of the team, and they will also have the opportunity to help supervise students and teach.
The position is initially for 12 months, renewable for up to 24 months, with a flexible start date.
The deadline for applications is 31/08/2023
DIQKD
(Contacts: Damian Markham, Eleni Diamanti)
Theoretical post-doc in quantum information networks, in the context of a national collaborative project developing device independent quantum key distribution DIQKD. The goal is to develop device independent QKD for future quantum networks, to explore solutions to attaining long distance, integration into broader quantum networks, and approaches using continuous variable technologies.
The successful candidate will be expected to manage their own research, contribute to the working life of the team, and they will also have the opportunity to help supervise students and teach.
The position is initially for 12 months, renewable for up to 24 months, with a flexible start date.
The deadline for applications is 31/08/2023
Connecting quantum processors
(Contacts: Damian Markham, Eleni Diamanti)
Looking for two theoretical post-docs in quantum information networks, in the context of a national collaborative project developing quantum computation infrastructure HQI. The goal is to work closely with collaborators to explore connecting quantum processors, from two different perspectives
Multi-quantum processor quantum computing (compiling, resources e.t.c.)
Networking classical and quantum processors and their cryptographic applications.
The successful candidate will be expected to manage their own research, contribute to the working life of the team, and they will also have the opportunity to help supervise students and teach.
The position is initially for 12 months, renewable for up to 24 months, with a flexible start date.
The deadline for applications is 31/08/2023
Quantum Information with CV clusters states
(Contacts: Damian Markham, Frederic Grosshans)
The Quantum Information (QI) team in LIP6, Sorbonne Université, is looking for a theoretical post-doc in continuous variable quantum information, in the context of an EU flagship project CLUSTEC. The goal is to work closely with experimental and theoretical collaborators across Europe to explore applications of continuous variable cluster states for computational and quantum information tasks. The successful candidate will be expected to manage their own research, contribute to the working life of the team, and they will also have the opportunity to help supervise students and teach.
The position is initially for 12 months, renewable for up to 36 months, with a flexible start date.
The deadline for applications is 31/08/2023
Applicants should send their CV, a cover letter and arrange for at least two references to be sent to Damian Markham damian.markham@lip6.fr.
