Requisition Id 16104 Overview: The Quantum Heterostructures Group is seeking outstanding candidates for a postdoctoral position in quantum information science. You will conduct experimental research at the intersection of quantum information science and fundamental materials science focused on understanding the coherent dynamics of optically accessible spins in bulk and van der Waals materials in the presence of controlled spin baths. The candidate will measure and manipulate single- and ensemble-spin defects at temperatures of 50 mK-350 K and at fields of up to 15 T with a particular emphasis on controlling coherent spin-spin interactions. In addition, the ideal candidate will develop new quantum sensing protocols leveraging coherent spin dynamics in high-field and low temperature environments. You will collaborate closely with an interdisciplinary team with expertise in quantum sensing, quantum optics, materials synthesis and processing, and condensed matter theory. This...
