We are searching for a motivated student to participate in a joint theoretical-experimental PhD project focused on the study of superconducting qubits based on hybrid nanostructures.
The project aims to explore quantum devices that employ elements based on hybrid superconductor-semiconductor nanostructures, which brings a rich physics and added functionalities when compared to conventional superconducting qubits (e.g., Andreev bound states, spin-orbit interaction and electrostatic tunability).
The research will involve the design and fabrication of hybrid superconducting devices (using e.g., e-beam lithography), and circuit quantum electrodynamics measurements at low temperatures, as well as the theoretical analysis of their properties.
Candidates:
Applicants should preferably have a bachelor in Physics and a masters in Condensed Matter Physics or related subjects.
