  • Il y a 30 jours
Offer DescriptionWe offer the possibility to do exciting experiments embedded in a culturally and scientifically rich research environment, situated in the heart of Europe. The new European Centre for Quantum Sciences (CESQ), attached to ISIS (Institut de Science et d'Ingénierie Supramoléculaires), develops new lines of research and technology exploiting quantum principles, at the frontiers to chemistry, physics, materials science, and computing. CESQ hosts an operational prototype Rydberg quantum processor based on optically trapped Rydberg atom qubits and leads the development of the next generation dual species Rydberg quantum computer with
400 fully addressable qubits for scalable digital QC (aQCess - Atomic Quantum Computing as a Service) currently under construction. For more information and recent publications, visit:
  • Description of the research activities : This project will focus on the realization of a new dual species platform for atomic quantum computing comprising
400 high quality atomic qubits and a universal gate set.
  • Related activities : The post-doctoral researcher will work within a team to help manage day-to-day activities in the lab, design, construct and install parts of the aQCess platform. It is expected that the researcher will publish open hardware designs, scientific and technical papers and present research results at national and internation conferences.
