Universität Basel
Postdoctoral Fellow - Ultrafast Spin Qubit Readout for Quantum Computing
📍 4000 Basel
Role and responsibilities
Develop and implement a platform for dynamical optical Q-switching of superconducting resonators to achieve ultrafast and nondestructive readout of gate-defined spin qubits. Conduct high-frequency opto-transport experiments at cryogenic temperatures. Design, build, and optimize experimental setups for optoelectronic measurements. Collaborate closely with consortium partners, particularly the groups of Prof. Richard Warburton and Dr. Andreas Kuhlmann.
