Paderborn University is a high-performance and internationally oriented university. Within interdisciplinary teams, we undertake forward-looking
research, design innovative teaching concepts and actively transfer knowledge into society. As an important research and cooperation partner, the
university also shapes regional development strategies. We offer our employees in research, teaching, technology and administration a lively, family-
friendly and equal opportunity environment, a lean management structure and diverse opportunities. Join us to invent the future!
With the Institute for Photonic Quantum Systems (PhoQS), Paderborn University aims to establish an international research center in the field of
photonic quantum technologies. The goal is to develop new technologies for photon-based quantum applications as well as new theoretical and
experimental concepts and research approaches. The ultimate focus is on the understanding and control of photonic quantum simulators and
quantum computers.
Within this scope, we invite applications for the following fixed-term position (75% of the regular working time), which will start at the earliest
opportunity:
Ph.D. Student (f/m/d)
(Salary level 13 TV-L)
The position is embedded within the project “Quantenrepeater.Net (QR.N)” funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
Employment is initially limited to three years and adheres to the legal regulations laid out in the WissZeitVG. The setting period corresponds to the
project period.
In the collaborative project, we will develop integrated optical devices in thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) for efficient frequency conversion.
The position will be integrated in a large, dynamic, and friendly international group, with expertise from device design and fabrication to quantum
photonics and networking. The following are examples of relevant tasks
It is expected for the successful candidate to have experience in one or more of the following areas:
