ICFO is offering a postdoctoral position to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientist who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.
The successful candidate will be joining the Optoelectronics group led by Prof. Dr. Valerio Pruneri. The group has experience in studying and developing new advanced materials, devices, and systems for information and communication technologies, particularly displays, image sensors, and cybersecurity. The main objective is to conduct research that bridges academia and industry by developing fundamental ideas with great potential for revolutionizing future photonic products.
The candidates will work on projects aimed at building the next generation of practical quantum cryptography systems. The hosting group has developed technology for continuous variable quantum key distribution and quantum random number generation, now being commercialized by two ICFO spin-offs, Luxquanta and Quside, respectively.
Currently, the group is involved in the design and development of a QKD transmitter for the space segment. The project involves working on the opto-electronics design, conducting laboratory and ground-to-ground field tests that will later allow, in collaboration with companies dedicated to space hardware development, the creation of an engineering model of the QKD transmitter for its adaptation to space.
Funded by MCIN/AEI/ 10.13039/501100011033 and by the “European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR
