A four year PhD candidate  position vacant in development of mechanical nano-oscillators for hybrid quantum systems.

Are you motivated to take a step towards a doctorate and open up exciting career within device science and industry. In this project where you will work in a joint group situated at Department of physics and QuSpin as well as the Department of electric systems exploring physics and developing a device platform within NTNU Nanolab. You will be instrumental to establish cutting edge fabrications techniques to enable progress at the intersection between photonics, phononics and magnonics.  Your immediate leader will be the Head of Department.

The objective of this project is to develop a new nanofabrication process for the preparation of a magnonic hybrid quantum system with an engineered phononic dissipation environment in the NTNU Nanolab cleanroom. The position is fully funded for four years of which 1 year constitutes compulsory work for NanoLab. The compulsory year will be distributed over the four years. The project is carried out jointly between the Department for Physics and the Department for Electronic Engineering at NTNU.

The supervisor for this position is Professor Erik Wahlström. The position is co-supervised by Associate Professor Johann Riemensberger.
