About this position
The Quantum Matter Lab at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for experimental work on topologically protected synthetic matter.
The project investigates one-dimensional and two-dimensional arrays of semiconductor-superconductor Josephson junctions formed in different lattice geometries. The research will explore novel states and dynamics of emergent quantum states, including topological matter and flat bands, at the interface of quantum simulation and quantum matter.
The work takes advantage of novel epitaxial hybrid materials and combines nanofabrication with low-temperature experiments using a cryofree dilution refrigerator. The researcher will also apply low-noise and high-frequency electrical measurement techniques, perform data analysis, and collaborate closely with theoretical physicists.
The position is embedded in the Quantum Matter Lab, a research group focused on experimental solid-state physics, quantum nanoelectronics, and condensed matter device physics. The lab is part of Condensed Matter Physics at the Niels Bohr Institute and offers an international research environment with interactions among experimentalists, theorists, and potential industry collaborators. The research is based in Copenhagen.
