Research Fellow (Loh Huanqian's group ), Centre for Quantum Technologies

About the Centre for Quantum Technologies

The Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) is a research centre of excellence in Singapore. It brings together physicists, computer scientists and engineers to do basic research on quantum physics and to build devices based on quantum phenomena. Experts in this new discipline of quantum technologies are applying their discoveries in computing, communications, and sensing.

CQT is hosted by the National University of Singapore and also has staff at Nanyang Technological University. With some 180 researchers and students, it offers a friendly and international work environment.

Job Description

A postdoctoral research fellow opening is available in the group of Loh Huanqian at the Centre for Quantum Technologies.

Our research is centered on the quantum control of singly trapped ultracold atoms using arrays of reconfigurable tweezers. These atom arrays offer exquisite control over the internal quantum states, motional states, array dimensionality, array geometry, doping, and interactions. The postdoctoral research fellow will work with a team of students to set up an experiment to induce and manipulate tunable interactions between the single atoms. The postdoctoral position is funded by the Singapore Quantum Engineering Programme.

Job Requirements

The candidate should have a PhD degree in physics and a proven track record in experimental atomic physics. At least 4 years of laboratory experience with quantum gases (Bose-Einstein condensates or degenerate Fermi gases) is strongly preferred.

Covid-19 Message

At NUS, the health and safety of our staff and students are one of our utmost priorities, and COVID-vaccination supports our commitment to ensure the safety of our community and to make NUS as safe and welcoming as possible. Many of our roles require a significant amount of physical interactions with students/staff/public members. Even for job roles that may be performed remotely, there will be instances where on-campus presence is required.

Taking into consideration the health and well-being of our staff and students and to better protect everyone in the campus, applicants are strongly encouraged to have themselves fully COVID-19 vaccinated to secure successful employment with NUS.
