Description:

The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (www.fraunhofer.com) currently operates 76 institutes and research institutions throughout Germany and is the world’s leading applied research organization. Around 32 000 employees work with an annual research budget of 3.4 billion euros.
The »Wireline Communication Circuits« group at Fraunhofer IIS is part of the “Integrated Circuits and Systems” department and is located at the institute’s Erlangen site. Our team members have diverse academic backgrounds in Electronics, Communication Engineering, and Physics. Our group, well known for multi-gigabit SERDES solutions for the automotive industry, looks forward to utilizing our expertise to address challenges in the field of Quantum Communication and Quantum Key Distribution.
The field of »Quantum Communication« is an emerging research domain within the »Wireline Communication Circuits« group. With our proven track record in CMOS analog circuit design, we aim to explore different Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) methodologies in practice. As part of the QuKomIn consortium, led by the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, we seek to partition a QKD system into optical and electronic domains to assess the feasibility of a monolithic or heterogeneous integrated solution for next-generation QKD systems.

Responsibilities:

  • You will work on topics related to Quantum Communication, diving into the fascinating world of this cutting-edge technology
  • You will create an overview of the state of the art of Quantum Key Distribution, analyzing the latest advancements in this crucial area of secure communications and identifying opportunities for further innovation
  • You will work towards models and/or circuits for existing and emerging QKD systems, to help us meet the evolving needs of the industry
  • You will conceptualize ideas for the next generation of Quantum Communication technologies, bringing your creativity and knowledge to the table to shape the future of secure communication
