Fully Funded PhD Studentships in Applied Quantum Technologies — 2027 Entry University of Strathclyde in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in Controlling Errors in Quantum Computers at Imperial College London , supervised by Dr Zhenyu Cai . This project targets one of the central challenges in quantum computation : reducing and controlling errors in quantum machines. The research aims to develop a full-stack approach to quantum error suppression , integrating methods across multiple layers of the quantum computing stack. Relevant research areas include quantum error correction , quantum error mitigation , and quantu...

The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo has postdoctoral positions available in theoretical quantum information this year, including a new distinguished postdoctoral position. The opportunity is suited to researchers interested in quantum information theory , quantum computing , and theoretical quantum science. Applicants should consult the official IQC and University of Waterloo available positions page for position-specific details, eligibility requirements, fun...

Integrated photonic chips for neutral-atom quantum computers is a PhD project at the University of Southampton focused on developing the photonic technology required to scale neutral-atom quantum computers. You will design integrated photonic chips that generate, shape and steer laser beams for controlling arrays of individual atoms. The research addresses the limitations of current free-space optical systems, which rely on complex arrangements of lenses, mirrors and spatial light modulators tha...

Durham University’s Department of Physics is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate for a project on quantum networking at telecom wavelengths with Yb qubits . The work is led by Dr Tobias Franzen and funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) . The project aims to develop enabling technologies for future quantum networks by combining ytterbium atom qubits , quantum optics , AMO physics , compact laser systems, modular tweezer-array platforms, and cavity-enhan...
