About this position

University College London is advertising a post-doctoral position in the group of Professor Paul Warburton in London, UK. The role is part of a three-year QuantERA European consortium project called APPSUNCAP, focused on the applications of superconducting non-linear capacitors.

The research will involve fabricating and measuring coherent quantum phase-slips in superconducting nanowires, with the aim of developing new quantum components such as qubits, amplifiers, and current standards. This is a strong fit for candidates with interests in physics, electrical engineering, and materials science, especially those working in nanoelectronics, superconductivity, and quantum device research.

The post is a research job opening rather than a scholarship. The announcement does not list detailed eligibility criteria in the post text, but it clearly targets a postdoctoral researcher. Interested applicants should review the full vacancy information on the UCL jobs page and apply before the stated deadline.

Deadline: 2026-07-19

Contact: [email protected] for informal enquiries.

Funding details

Three-year post-doctoral research position within the QuantERA European consortium project APPSUNCAP. The post is a paid job-like research appointment; no stipend, tuition, or salary amount is stated in the post.

What's required

Applicants should be suitable for a post-doctoral research position and able to work on fabrication and measurement of superconducting nanowires and coherent quantum phase-slips.
