ICFO - The Institute of Photonics Sciences offers Master Position

in the field of experimental quantum optics for International students, Spain

Study Subject(s): Quantum Optics with Solid State Quantum Memories.

Course Level: Master.

Scholarship Provider: ICFO- The Institutue of Photonics Sciences.

Scholarship can be taken at: Spain.

Eligibility:

The candidate should have good knowledge in non linear and quantum optics, and quantum information science.

There are no restrictions of citizenship for the ICFO positions.

Scholarship Description:

The Quantum Photonics with Solid and Atoms group (QPSA, www.qpsa.icfo.es) at ICFO, led by Prof. Hugues de Riedmatten, is opening a Master thesis position in experimental quantum optics. The project is within the framework of quantum information science, which goal is to control quantum coherence effects in matter and light to enable new information processing capabilities. More precisely, the project will focus on the realization of quantum memories (QM) for light. QMs allow a coherent and reversible transfer of quantum information between light and long lived matter quantum bits.

How to Apply: Online.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 31st of December, 2012
