About this position

PhD opportunity in experimental cavity QED with 2D quantum materials at the Autonomous University of Madrid through the FPI-UAM 2026 call.

The project focuses on quantum photonics, light–matter interaction, weak and strong coupling in cryogenic optical resonators, and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and related semiconductor systems.

This is a fully funded doctoral position for up to 4 years with a competitive salary scale. The call also mentions possible teaching collaboration and short research stays abroad.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should have a degree with at least 300 ECTS or a master's degree, be admitted or preadmitted to a UAM doctoral programme for 2026–2027, not already hold a PhD, and meet the academic performance threshold (minimum average 7.5, or 7.0 for engineering degrees, or top decile of the graduating class). The degree should have been completed after 1 January 2022, with some exceptions.

Key dates: applications open on 7 September 2026, deadline 27 September 2026, and contract start 1 March 2027.

If you are finishing a master's in physics or a related field and are interested in quantum photonics, cavity QED, or 2D materials, this is a strong fit.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
