Openings
Postdoctoral Associate
The Nichol Group in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Rochester seeks applications for a postdoctoral research associate. We are a leading research group in the field of quantum information processing with semiconductor quantum dots. We are looking for a creative, self-motivated researcher who has the ability and interest to pursue exciting and challenging problems in spin qubits, many-body quantum coherence, quantum transduction, and related areas. The ideal candidate will have:
- completed a PhD in physics or a related field,
- experience with cryogenics, including dilution refrigerators,
- experience with microfabrication and nanofabrication, including electron beam lithography, and
- good communication and teamwork skills.
To apply, applicants should submit their CV, a brief statement of research interests, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to John Nichol (john.nichol@rochester.edu). Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
