Relevant research areas include quantum error correction , quantum error mitigation , and quantu...

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...

The Department of Structural Dynamics at ELI Beamlines is seeking a PhD candidate to work at the Transient Current Technique (TCT) end-station on laser-based characterization of semiconductor particle detectors , with a particular focus on low-gain avalanche diodes (LGADs) . The project centers on developing advanced measurement methods and software for detector characterization using ultrashort laser pulses . The successful candidate will contribute to the development and validation of automate...

This PhD project will investigate whether a single optical metasurface chip can help scale neutral-atom quantum computers from systems containing hundreds of atoms to platforms capable of trapping thousands. The project focuses on designing, fabricating and testing a power-efficient dielectric metasurface that forms a large array of microscopic atom traps on a compact chip. By replacing bulky, lossy and alignment-sensitive free-space optical systems, the work aims to make neutral-atom quantum co...
