| Post Docs | Harvard University | The Harvard Physics Department will make several postdoctoral appointments for research in the general areas of quantum control and physics of quantum information. Each postdoc will b
e primarily affiliated with one research project. However, most projects will involve collaboration with several faculty members, and interaction with other postdocs and faculty will be strongly e
ncouraged. The postdoctoral fellows will be involved in the Harvard-MIT Center for Ultracold Atoms, the Harvard Center for Imaging and Mesoscopic Science, and the Harvard-Smithsonian Institute for
Theoretical atomic and Molecular Physics. Current areas of interest include: Physics of quantum information (experimental and theoretical) Quantum optics and atomic physics (experimental and
theoretical) Mesoscopic physics (experimental and theoretical) Strongly correlated systems and qua
ntum phase transitions (theoretical) Tests of fundamental symmetries and development of atomic cloc
ks (experimental) Experience in one of these or related areas is desirable but not necessary. We are looking for the best overall theoretical and experimental physicists with recent Ph.D. T

| Postdoctoral Opening in Condensed Matter Quantum Computing (Theory) | Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany | A postdoctoral position in theory of quantum computation and -coherence in condensed matter systems such as superconductors and semiconductors is open at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany, in the group of Frank K. Wilhelm. The starting date, pending budgetary approval, is flexible in the summer of 2005. The position will be for an initial period of two years with a possible extension to a third year. The research topics will be defined together with the candidate - possibilities include the design and simulation of superconducting quantum memory and the application of optimum control theory to qubits subject to decoherence. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in physics with a strong background either in condensed matter / mesoscopic physics, or in theoretical quantum optics / atomic physics / quantum information theory. We expect a candidate with good analytical and numerical skills who is interested in strong interaction with experimentalists and theoretical groups of different backgrounds. Munich is an ideal reseach environment in this direction: Our group is part of the institute of Prof. von Delft and Prof. Marquardt, who have related research interests. Munich hosts the SFB 631, a local center of excellence on solid-state based quantum computing, in which more than 15 groups collaborate. Furthermore, our group is part of CeNS (the LMU nanoscience institute with its center of excellence) and the Arnold Sommerfeld Center for theoretical physics. The Munich area hosts many research institutions including two universities and many Max-Planck institutes. For more information see http://www.theorie.physik.uni-muenchen.de/lsvondelft/ . Point of contact for this position is PD Dr. Frank K. Wilhelm, Department Physik, Theresienstr. 37, 80333 Munich, Germany, Tel. +49 89 2180 4529, E-Mail wilhelm.physik.uni-muenchen.de . Applications via E-Mail in a .pdf - File are encouraged. Please include CV, list of publications, and contact information of two references. Deadline: none |
