The Optical Nanomaterial Group in the Physics Department at ETH Zurich is looking for two Postdoctoral Researchers for 3‑year projects on quantum networks and quantum sensing.

Job description

Photonic integrated circuits promise advanced functionality for applications such as quantum information processing and precision sensing. Thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) is a maturing photonics platform that can integrate frequency conversion, quantum light sources and high‑speed electro‑optic modulation on a single device.

In the Optical Nanomaterial Group, we specialise in the nanofabrication and optical characterization of TFLN photonic circuits for applications in nonlinear optics, quantum communications and quantum sensing. The open positions will work on (1) TFLN circuits for quantum networks and (2) TFLN circuits for quantum sensing – both projects are 3 years long.

Responsibilities

1. Quantum networks involve entangling distant quantum...
