Research Assistent (EG 13 TV-H) - Computational Electronics and Photonics

Part-time with 75,00 percent of the regular working time of a full-time employee. This is a fixed term-position of 2 years with the possibility of extending the contract (§ 2 Abs. 1 WissZeitVG; opportunity for PhD project).

Tasks:

• we are looking for motivated researchers in the field of quantum information processing. Within the project SMoLBits (scalable molecular quantum bits) we develop integrated platforms for quantum computing and communication within an interdisciplinary team of physicists, chemists and electrical engineers
• the successful candidate will develop a theoretical model for the photonic and phononic coupling of molecules to a photonic crystal dielectric environment. We are interested in the quantum  properties of the light emission and absoprtion, and the ability to generate qubits. In collaboration with partners in theory and experiment, the model shall be verified and applied to the analysis of experimental data. Ultimately an integrated platform for quantum information processing shall be realized
• we offer an attractive position with the possibility to attend international conferences, publish in scientific journals, and participate in project management and teaching activities. Our research partners in industry and academia enable the candidate to build an extensive network, and we have access to latest technologies and devices

Requirements:

• Master or Diploma in physics, mathematics or electrical engineering
• Knowledge in electromagnetic theory, quantum physics, numerical modeling, and software development
• The position qualifies for obtaining a PhD

Advantages:

• Knowledge in electromagnetic theory, semiconductors, numerical modeling, and software development

In terms of equal opportunities, the University of Kassel endeavours to offer women and men the same development opportunities and to counteract existing disadvantages. The aim is to significantly increase the proportion of women in research and teaching. Qualified women are therefore expressly encouraged to apply. Severely disabled applicants with the same aptitude and qualifications are given preference. Full-time positions are generally divisible. Please submit only copies of your application documents (no folders), as these cannot be returned after the selection process has been completed; they will be destroyed in accordance with data protection regulations.
