The QTC is a growing community of researchers working together to advance quantum technology. We welcome inquiries from researchers interested in joining the center. We welcome postdocs, faculty, graduate and undergraduate students to become a part of the center.
Current Openings
Post-doc, Graduate Student and Undergraduate Research Positions in the Linke Lab
Prof. Norbert Linke’s research group at the Joint Quantum Institute, at the University of Maryland Department of Physics is an experimental group working with trapped atomic ions on different applications in quantum physics. These include quantum information processing, in particular the implementation of quantum algorithms and enhancing the power of quantum computers with machine learning techniques, the simulation of interesting quantum phenomena, and quantum networking with entangled near-telecom ion-photons.
If you are interested in working with Prof. Linke's group as a post-doc, graduate student or for an undergraduate project, please get in touch by emailing linke@umd.edu.
Post-doc and Graduate Student Positions in the Kollar Lab
The field of circuit QED has emerged as a rich platform for both quantum computation and quantum simulation. Lattices of coplanar waveguide (CPW) resonators realize artificial photonic materials in the tight-binding limit. Combined with strong qubit-photon interactions, these systems can be used to study dynamical phase transitions, many-body phenomena, and spin models in driven-dissipative systems. These waveguide cavities are uniquely deformable and can produce lattices and networks which cannot readily be obtained in other systems, including periodic lattices in a hyperbolic space of constant negative curvature, and the one-dimensional nature of CPW resonators leads to degenerate flat bands. In our lab, we build experimental implementations of these systems using superconducting circuits.
Postdoc and graduate student positions available! Send an email to akollar@umd.edu.
Post-doc and Undergraduate Research Positions in the Gong Lab
Dr. Cheng Gong is offering opportunities for post-docs and undergraduates to take part in research in his lab. His lab research broadly covers 2D magnetic, electronic and photonic materials, heterostructures and devices, studied by electrical and optical measurements.
Reach out to him at gongc@umd.edu for more information.
Post-doc and Graduate Student Positions in the Walsworth Lab
Dr. Ronald Walsworth leads an interdisciplinary research group that develops precision measurement tools and applies them to problems ranging from quantum physics and astrophysics to geoscience and biomedical imaging.
