Postdoc on Continuous Optical Clocks University of Amsterdam in Netherlands

The University of Amsterdam is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join the Strontium Quantum Gases Group in the Institute of Physics. Led by Prof. Florian Schreck, the group is part of the Quantum Gases & Quantum Information cluster within the Van der Waals–Zeeman Institute for Experimental Physics. The project focuses on developing continuous optical clocks based on ultracold strontium atoms. Optical clocks already enable extremely precise measurements of time and gravitational effects; this ...

The Ultracold Strontium Group at the University of Amsterdam’s Institute of Physics is recruiting a PhD researcher to help build and operate a zero-deadtime optical clock . The project focuses on overcoming the pulsed operation of current optical clocks by enabling continuous interrogation of ultracold strontium atoms, with the goal of reaching ultimate precision in minutes rather than hours. You will work on a highly experimental project that combines laser systems, optics, electronics, debuggi...

The University of Amsterdam is recruiting a PhD candidate to help develop a continuously operating optical atomic clock in the Ultracold Strontium Group at the Institute of Physics. The project addresses a fundamental limitation of conventional optical clocks, which operate in pulses and require many hours of averaging to reach their ultimate precision. The candidate will work on a zero-deadtime clock that continuously interrogates ultracold strontium atoms. The planned system will use a continu...

The University of Amsterdam is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join the Strontium Quantum Gases Group at the Institute of Physics. The project focuses on quantum simulation and quantum computing with individual strontium atoms held in optical tweezers. The group develops experimental methods for manipulating single strontium atoms and uses them to investigate new directions in quantum science. The postdoctoral researcher will help explore topics including three-dimensional spin systems, the...

This postdoctoral project sits at the intersection of experimental atomic physics, precision optics, and quantum technology. The work is embedded in the University of Amsterdam’s Institute of Physics and the Strontium Quantum Gases Group, led by Prof. Dr. Florian Schreck, and is carried out together with the group’s spin-off OpticsFoundry B.V. and in collaboration with the Nonlinear Nanophotonics group at the University of Twente. The project focuses on developing technology to robotically manuf...
