👤 Prof. Markus Hennrich

⏳ Deadline : 28 September 2026

⚠️Apply Link⚠️

🗣More information: The Trapped Ion Quantum Technology Group at Stockholm University invites applications for a highly motivated PhD student to join our experimental trapped ion research. The aim of the PhD project is to investigate open spin-boson systems with trapped ions. This position is part of the QuantERA project " Collective quantum phenomena in dissipative systems – towards time-crystal applications in sensing and metrology (CoQuaDis)".
The CoQuaDis project aims to study many-body phases in open quantum systems and to demonstrate their use in sensing and timekeeping. At Stockholm University, we realize such systems using crystals of trapped ions, which provide long trapping times, controllable interactions mediated by collective vibrations, and in-situ cooling. This enables stable operation and continuous readout of dissipative many-body phases. This highly controllable platform allows us to address fundamental questions in open quantum many-body dynamics.
