The Physics of Quantum Materials (PQM) group is recruiting now in the field of Quantum Technologies
There is an opportunity to join our group with a number of prestigious and fully-funded PhD studentships. The studentships are supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) under its Quantum Technologies Theme.
Currently proposed funded projects involving PQM group members include:
- NISQ quantum algorithms for modelling 2d quantum matter. Supervisor: Gunnar Moller (School of Physics & Astronomy).
- Topological state preparation on NISQ quantum computers. Supervisors: Gunnar Moller (School of Physics & Astronomy) and Steffen Krusch (School of Mathematics, Statistics and Actuarial Science).
- Cybersecurity Applications of Present and Near-term (NISQ) Quantum Computers. Supervisors: Carlos Perez Delgado (School of Computing) and Jorge Quintanilla (School of Physics & Astronomy).
- Using Quantum Computers to Develop Quantum Advantage in Coordinated Exploration Tasks. Supervisors: Jorge Quintanilla (School of Physics & Astronomy) and Paul Strange (School of Physics & Astronomy).
Candidates are encouraged to contact the prospective advisors to discuss the projects.
