The posting

PHD IN SPIN PHOTON ENTANGLEMENT GENERATION WITH COLOUR CENTRES IN SILICON CARBIDE (m/f)Temporary contract | 14+22(+12) months | Belval Are you passionate about research? So are we! Come and join usThe Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) is a Research and Technology Organization (RTO) active in the fields of materials, environment and IT. By transforming scientific knowledge into technologies, smart data and tools, LIST empowers citizens in their choices, public authorities in their decisions and businesses in their strategies.Do you want to know more about LIST? Check our website: <a href="https://www.list.lu" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.list.lu</a>/ How will you contribute?You will be part of the LIST Materials Research and Technology department, where you will carry out your work in the Quantum Materials Group, led by Dr. Florian Kaiser.Quantum technologies have the potential to revolutionise the world in many aspects. Quantum colour centres in in wide bandgap semiconductors have recently emerged as a promising platform, since they can incorporate quantum systems, which can be scaled up by industrial processing. Along these lines, we have recently shown that individual colour centres can be integrated into silicon carbide nanophotonic waveguides with little-to-no degradation of spin-optical coherences. These finding define the strategy for developing a scalable quantum technology architecture.Our strategy is to use multiplexed and integrated colour centres for quantum communication tasks. Key here is to generate entanglement between colour centres based on spin-photon entanglement, as well as Hong-Ou-Mandel interference. With this milestone demonstration, we strive to kickstart subsequent developments towards a quantum internet architecture. The objective of this PhD thesis is to support our work towards optical interference between colour centres, i.e., Hong-Ou-Mandel interference. The initial part of this thesis comprises setting up our new optical cryostat platform, which is based on a combination of standard confocal microscopy, and interferometry. In the second step, you will benefit from our ongoing activities towards quantum photonic silicon carbide chips in which we generate colour centres in fibre-coupled waveguides.You will determine the ideal pulsed excitation schemes for colour centres, considering spectral, temporal and polarization filtering. Subsequently, you will characterise the photon quality depending on experimental parameters, and implement initial two-photon inteference experiments outside of the cryostat, followed by a fully-on-chip demonstration inside the cryostat. If time permits, this project can be further extended to the generation of entanglement between two colour centre chips located in two different cryostats. Is Your profile described below?

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
