Superconducting and Hybrid Quantum Information Platforms
Information Directorate, RI/Information Directorate/Information Technology
This research opportunity focuses on the development of new quantum information platforms and the exploration of related fundamental physics in support of the Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate's quantum networking and computing missions. Prospective associates will have opportunities to work on cutting edge experiments at the nexus of superconducting quantum computing, atomic physics, and quantum optics. Specific projects could include work to develop architectures for interfacing superconducting devices, ion-trap systems, and integrated photonic circuitry; and development of microwave-optical quantum transduction techniques. Associates will join a highly-motivated and talented team of researchers; acquire a panoply of quantum engineering skills; as well as explore challenging problems in fundamental aspects of quantum information science.
Experience Supplement
Postdoctoral and Senior awardees will receive an appropriately higher stipend based on the number of years of experience past their PhD.
Awardees who reside more than 50 miles from their host laboratory and remain on tenure for at least six months are eligible for paid relocation to within the vicinity of their host laboratory.
A group health insurance program is available to awardees and their qualifying dependents in the United States.
