The Emergent Quantum Systems Lab (EQSL) in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at University of Notre Dame is seeking a postdoctoral researcher. 

The research will involve designing and fabricating superconducting devices, handling and studying noble-gas liquids and solids, measuring electronic and optical properties of materials and devices at millikelvin temperatures. 

The candidate should have a strong background in condensed matter physics, material sciences, or related engineering fields. Programming skills for controlling electronic/optical hardware and performing model calculations are highly desirable. 

This position is funded and renewable up to three years. Further extension of appointment will depend on funding availability and mutual agreement. 

Knowledge, Skills and Experience

Required: 

• Experience in electronic/optical device design and fabrication
• Experience in quantum transport and/or microwave measurement
• Ability to effectively communicate both verbally and in writing 

Preferred:

• Experience in cryogenic/vacuum system design and operation
• Experience in superconductor/semiconductor/trapped-ion/defect based qubit research
• Experience in electrodynamic simulation and/or density-functional calculation
• Knowledge and good understanding of quantum information science

Interested candidates can apply on AJO. They can also send a curriculum vitae to Prof. Dafei Jin (dfjin@nd.edu).
