PhD - Ultracold Atoms and Quantum Metrology

Institute of Photonic Sciences
Barcelona, Spain
 
Description
 
ICFO – Institute of Photonic Sciences and LENS – European Laboratory for Nonlinear Spectroscopy, are seeking applicants for a prestigious PhD position funded by the Erasmus Mundus programme. Working with Professor Morgan Mitchell (ICFO) and his ultra-cold atomic physics group, the successful candidate will study potentially-revolutionary new strategies in ultra-sensitive measurements using ultra-cold atoms. A portion of the work will be done in collaboration at LENS in the groups of Giovanni Modugno and Marco Fattori. Both groups are funded by prestigious European Research Council grants, have state-of-the-art laboratories, and enjoy strong collaborations with top European research groups. The PhD fellowship is funded by the Erasmus Mundus Europhotonics programme of the European Commission. The working language at both institutions is English.
 
Requirements
 
We are looking for a highly motivated individual with a strong academic record and a Masters degree in physics, optical engineering, or related fields. Previous experimental experience, knowledge of atomic physics and quantum optics are highly desirable.
