The Hong Kong Institute of Quantum Information Science and Technology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong invites applications for Research Assistant Professor position in the following directions.

1. Experimental diamond-based sensing. The applicants are expected to have experience in at least one of the following fields – quantum sensing, nanomagnetism, AFM, STM, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, condensed matter physics, bio-imaging and light-sheet microscopy.

2. Experimental quantum optics. The duty of the position is to set up and study superradiant lasers or masers using atoms or defects in solids and to develop quantum information technologies based on the lasers or masers.

3. Theoretical quantum optics focusing on superradiance laser/maser, Floquet laser/maser, and the effects of many-body correlations.

4. Quantum sensing theory, focusing on quantum correlation spectroscopy, with applications to the detection of quantum many-body physics, and/or the test of quantum foundation.

Salary will be commensurate with the applicant’s qualifications and experience. Appointment will initially be made on contract basis for up to three years, renewable subject to performance and mutual agreement.

Applicants should submit an online application and attach a full resume, a list of publications, copies of academic credentials, together with names, addresses and fax numbers/e-mail addresses of three referees to whom the applicants' consent has been given for their providing references.
