PhD in Physics and Astronomy: Search for Quantization of Space-Time with Photon Counting Interferometry Cardiff University in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at Loughborough University in the Department of Physics on spectrally pure topological microcombs , with a strong focus on photonics, optics, nonlinear optics, integrated photonics, quantum mechanics, experimental physics , and related computational/AI-enabled methods. This funded project is part of a collaboration with the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and aims to develop extremely low-noise optical sources (microcombs) for precision timing and metrology-ready quantum timin...

PhD opportunity at the University of Birmingham in experimental physics , quantum mechanics , and fundamental physics . This funded PhD project, supervised by Professor Giovanni Barontini in the School of Physics and Astronomy , focuses on searching for new physics with highly charged ion clocks . The research aims to develop a new atomic clock based on highly charged ions (HCIs) , specifically the first clock based on highly charged californium (Cf17+) , to probe possible variations of the fine...

Research Associate in Quantum Computation at Imperial College London is a postdoctoral opportunity in the Department of Computing with Dr Zhenyu Cai’s research group. The project focuses on quantum computation , quantum error correction , and quantum error mitigation , with an emphasis on a full-stack approach to suppressing errors in quantum hardware. The research spans hardware-level noise suppression through to practical fault-tolerant quantum computation. This is a 36-month position with a c...
