This project will involve developing new photonic techniques for quantum information and metrology. Photonics provides a very promising approach for quantum information, and is natural for precision measurement via interferometry. The main problem has been photon loss, and scaling up to larger demonstrations with more photons. The goal of this project is to find new ways of dealing with these problems. This will generate new experimental proposals, that can be demonstrated by collaborators at Griffith University, Macquarie University, and The University of Queensland.
Some particular subprojects are:
To apply please email a CV, your academic transcripts at MSc, MPhil, BSc levels, copies of all theses (irrespective of whether in English or not), and pdfs of all relevant publications or preprints to . Label the subject of your email as "PhD Application".
The DEADLINE for these applications is March 31st.
The project's main target is merging quantum optics and the many-body physics of quantum gases, using theoretical methods of atomic and condensed matter physics. We will address novel phenomena, where the quantum natures of both light and ultracold matter (beyond a Bose-Einstein Condensate, BEC) play equally important roles. Modern theoretical and experimental studies are just entering this new ultimate quantum regime of the light-matter interaction. Applications for Quantum Information Processing and quasiparticles in the systems of quantum nanophotonics are of interest as well. For more information, please, visit www2.physics.ox.ac.uk/research/quantum-optics-of-quantum-many-body-systems.
Candidates with expertise in either Atomic, Molecular and Optical or Condensed Matter Physics are welcomed to apply. The position is fully funded for EU-related students. Other candidates should apply for additional funding to cover the overseas fees. You may apply before the actual completion date of your Master Degree.
To express the intention to apply, and for informal inquiries about the project and application procedure, please, contact the project leader Dr. Igor Mekhov (www2.physics.ox.ac.uk/contacts/people/Mekhov) before the deadline 9 March 2012.
The application should be submitted online to the "Atomic and Laser Physics" Programme. Please see http://www2.physics.ox.ac.uk/study-here/postgraduates/atomic-and-laser-physics for information on the requirements on academic ability and English Language tests. For information on How to Apply and an application form, please visit well in advance http://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/postgraduate_courses/apply/index.html. A PDF copy of your application for Graduate Admissions should also be sent to The Administrative Secretary, Atomic and Laser Physics, Department of Physics, Clarendon Laboratory, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PU, or by email to alp@physics.ox.ac.uk.
